We operate free walking tours, however, there is a cost to everything. To successfully operate the tours, we need to pay for administration, like the websites’ fees & commissions, materials, and other things which we sometimes need to cover with a percentage of the tips. However, our guides still keep a fair share of what they make. In 2019 we also started a new initiative called the Social Riviera Project where we give 10% of our tips to a charity. We chose a new charity every 3 months to make sure we are helping out in all the different areas we can.
The “day” walking tour of Nice which starts at 11:00 (am) gives everyone a general overview of Nice and is a great starting point for your holiday. It is usually more “full” during the summer season, with groups, averaging between 20 and 40 people. The “night” tour, which starts at 18:00 (6:00 pm) allows for enjoyment of the beautiful evening scenery!
On the other hand, our morning tour finishes at the Castle Hill & The night tour finishes at Garibaldi Square.

We want to accommodate and offer our tour to as many individuals as possible, therefore, in case of bookings for groups of 5 and more people, we charge 12 Eur per person. Thank you for understanding.
