About this tour
A three-hour guided tour through Nice's under-the-radar drinking dens and speakeasies, led by someone who actually knows the neighbourhood. You'll slip into tucked-away bars, meet other travellers keen on the same thing, and get one quality cocktail in a relaxed setting. Along the way, your guide fills in the stories—the bootlegging history, the French Connection angles—that give these places their edge.
Highlights
- Underground bars unknown to most guidebooks
- One craft cocktail included in the experience
- Local guide with genuine neighbourhood knowledge

What to expect
Your guide meets you and starts moving through Nice's quieter streets, ducking into bars that don't advertise themselves loudly. Each spot has its own character—dim lighting, tight corners, the sort of places regulars find and tourists stumble upon by accident. You'll spend time at each location, order your included drink, chat with the guide and fellow participants. Expect stories about how these bars operate, their ties to bigger crime history, why they matter to locals. It's not wild clubbing; it's about finding authenticity in a city full of surface gloss.
Good to know
Wear comfortable shoes for walking between venues. Bring cash for additional drinks or snacks not covered. The tour isn't strenuous, but involves navigating older streets and climbing stairs into basements. Public transport is nearby if you need to bail early or get back after.
