What Makes Avec Ines Walking Tours Special
A small-group, story-rich walk led by someone who calls Nice home
Nice is undoubtedly a city of remarkable beauty — but it is also much more than what first meets the eye. It is a place where every sense awakens, shaped by a unique harmony of sights, sounds, scents, tastes, and textures that cannot be appreciated by simply looking. They must be experienced. That’s why Nice is best discovered on foot.
On Avec Inés walking tours, you wander through the city’s most celebrated sights and its quieter secret spots in a small group, moving at a relaxed pace that allows you to notice details you might otherwise miss. Along the way, you’ll gain a clear understanding of Nice’s historical and cultural highlights, as well as the local myths and legends that shape its character.
Your guide, Inés, is a Nice-based expert who knows and loves the city’s rhythm, secrets, and everyday life. She is passionate about sharing the city’s soul through genuine local knowledge and practical tips that enrich the rest of your time in Nice. You leave not just with beautiful memories, but with a complete and insightful introduction to your holiday destination — the kind of understanding that deepens your entire stay.
Private tours
Would you prefer a more personal and flexible way to discover Nice? The Pearls of Nice walking tour — as well as other tailor-made versions — can be arranged as a private tour on request.
Private tours are offered in English or Finnish. They follow the same core route and themes as the regular group tour, but the itinerary can be adapted to your interests, schedule, and preferred pace.
Private tours are ideal for travelers, couples, families, friends, and groups seeking a calm, unhurried experience with personal attention. Private tours are subject to availability.
About Nice
More than a postcard — a city with many layers
Nice is instantly recognizable. A characteristic seaside setting and familiar silhouettes create an image many people carry with them long before they arrive. But that image is only the surface of a city shaped by far more.
Nice lives in contrasts. Italian ease and informality sit alongside French structure and order, creating a city that can feel polished and relaxed at the same time. You see this blend in the city itself: grand façades open onto ordinary streets, busy squares give way to quiet corners, and the city quickly shifts from spectacle to ordinary life. Here, Riviera elegance meets a city that is still very local and lived-in.
Look a little closer, and these layers begin to appear. They are visible in the structure of neighbourhoods, in the mix of architectural styles from different periods, and in long-established daily habits that continue quietly alongside modern life. The city’s character is not built from one story, but from many.
And that is why Nice stays with people. Not only because of what you see, but because of what you begin to notice when you slow down: the details, the atmosphere, and the sense that this is a real place — not a stage set for visitors.
