# Half-Day Walking Food Tour in Nice with Lunch

**Guidekin's take:** A half-day eating walk through the cafés and counters Niçois locals actually use, with lunch, drink stops and any public transport on the route included. More than a lunch's worth of tastings in a group kept small; gratuities are extra and minimum ages apply for joining and for alcohol. 4.93 from 60 reviews at €120 per person.

**Eating walk, small?:** Food walk, max twelve, lunch, drinks and transit at €120 per person for 4h; English only, ages twelve up. 4.93 from 60 reviews. Trade-off: English only; ages twelve and over; tips extra. (last checked September 22, 2026)
