Description

Step back into early 19th-century Nice—then still independent from France—on an immersive tour led by the city’s official executioner of the time. Brought to life by your costumed guide, this friendly and slightly clumsy bòia will take you through the historic heart of the French Riviera’s capital. Wander with him through alleyways, ancient doorways, and story-filled stones, as you uncover the intrigues of a Mediterranean city shaped by both local traditions and growing French influence. Between quirky tales of his grim profession and juicy gossip about the places and people he knows, prepare to be surprised by this sharp-tongued character. A one-of-a-kind experience blending humor, secrets, and heritage—perfect for rediscovering Nice from a truly original and captivating perspective. 1h30 tour, suitable for adults and children aged 10 and up
