Very enjoyable tour of Nice. Visited all the sights that we never saw on the previous 3 visits that we have had to Nice. We especially enjoyed the Old Town but also visited St Nicholas's Orthodox Cathedral and Villefranche Sur Mer. The commentary on the bus was excellent and made the appreciation of Nice so much better. Thoroughly recommend doing this tour on the Headout Hop on hop off bus.

I loved the panoramic views along the coast from Nice to Villefranche- sur -Mer. Amazing scenery. The commentary was very interesting and informative. I would highly recommend the tour.

A great way to see the area in a short time! I had limited time, so I was happy to stay on board for the full circuit. It would have been good to have had the time to hop off and explore some of the localities, such as Villefranche and the old quarter of Nice. Good value!

Was a great start to our trip, gave us some lovely ideas on where to explore. Only trouble was finding the start point. Map is too small to read & inaccurate. Maybe use the McDonald's under The Mecure as a reference point for where the start point is ...

I walked around for a really long time trying to find Stop 1. The downloadable map is out of date, so I ended up in the wrong place. Otherwise, it was great. But better signage at the hop-on, hop-off bus stops would be helpful.

This was one of our more relaxing days, as we don't think we actually spent time in Nice, but rather more in VilleFranche. But, we loved walking along the waterfront and enjoying the sights from the bus.
