Kiki is the best

I truly enjoyed the tour led by Kiki. Before arriving in Nice, I had joined free tours in two other cities, but Kiki’s was the best. It was very clear that she genuinely loves what she does. Although she mentioned being new to this, we never would have guessed—she shared so many wonderful and, at times, humorous stories about the city. At the end of the tour, she also provided us with plenty of great recommendations. Thank you, Kiki!

Excellent!

Kiki was an excellent guide. We got a really excellent mix of history, information, anecdotes and stories, as well as experiencing sokka! Much better than the bus tour! Many thanks!
