Excellent tour of Nice this morning - make sure to ask for Arthur! Our family was so impressed by his patience with us and his exceptional knowledge of the history and architecture, as well as his insider knowledge of great shops and places to eat. His style was versatile enough to engage us older arts/economics/history nerds, our teen's love of shopping and 'cool things' and our youngest one's interests in the surroundings. It's very hard to keep our youngest's attention to educational things, but Arthur did it. As a family, we do at least one tour in each city we visit so have seen our share of tour guides - we must say Arthur is genuinely master of his craft. And he left us with a great list of restaurants and places to visit that he curated and which has come in handy already. Thank you

We were a group of four and had a ‘private’ tour of the rich history that the Old city of Nice offers. Sabrina answered all our questions and gave us time for a quick break in the middle of the tour. This tour is a great idea when you visit especially if you are interested in history.
