Overview

Walking tour of Menton town centre, old town and graveyard, with panoramic views (option: visit the town's most incredible botanical park!

An unforgettable & unusual walk to discover the city centre's well-known & unknown monuments, with their diverse architectural styles with emphasis on fantasy & exoticism. We'll then get immerse in the Baroque splendours: maze of cobbled streets and narrow stairways in the splendid old town. Finally, let's admire panoramas from hilltop cemeteries (historic castle & memorial importance in World Wars & African combatants)

A poetic walk echoing our 5 senses to discover Menton (the well-named Pearl of the Côte d'Azur), the French capital of citrus fruits and lemons, and the sunniest town in France, nestling at the foot of the mountains and bathed by the Mediterranean. There will be plenty of opportunities to taste local products (specialities from Menton, citrus products, olive oils, etc.) and meet craftsmen (earthenware) or artists (painters).

Our guide, Cyril, was knowledgeable and professional. Answered all of our questions and added interesting tid bits about local architecture and designs. I would recommend this excursion! Be sure to wear comfortable shoes as there are many steps on the tour. Beautiful day sites and city.

Wonderful

Cyril made this trip the best GetYourGuide trip because we ever had. It already started with the fact that, for once, on the one Sunday where we came, the lemon farm eb was closed. However, after some messages on Whatsapp, Nice Creative Tours found an optimal solution. Cyril brought us several typical snacks and a lunch (also problem-free vegetarian). We were also allowed to borrow mosquito sprays from him. He even Googled what Austrians like to drink and then took us white wine. It was very entertaining. We saw a lot and also the tasting at “Maison Cannac” was more than good.
