- Marche provencal - We have a stop in the provencal market on market days (whichis everyday in full season)
- Musee Picasso - We are just showing the castle and museum from the outside, giving you an introduction to the museum but admission isn’t included. We do recommend for the people interested to come back after the tour to do this personal visit on their own.

Fun Introduction to Antibes - Our guide Ysa gave us a great overview of the history and culture of Antibes. I learned how Antibes used to be on the boundary of France with what would eventually become Italy. And in more recent history, she talked about some of the artists who came to the area to create their art. We even got to visit an old Absinthe bar and Ysa briefly turned into a mixologist and prepared absinthe samples for us to try.

Lively tour that brought history alive - I had an amazing time and learned so much about Antibes. Ysa was clearly passionate about the town and really brought the history alive with her own research, interpretation and anecdotes.

Awesome free walking tour - Our guide was very welcoming and had interesting notes to say about each stop, without overloading us. The little tasting experience from the free walking tour was a bonus- we didn’t know it was included but it was so cool!
She was very helpful and answered tourists-type questions after, would definitely recommend at the start of your trip to get the lay of the land!

Walking tour of Antibes - The Antibes walking tour with Ysa was fantastic! It was really well organized and run, so easy to find the location. Ysa had great energy and enthusiasm as she showed us around Antibes and obviously a huge amount of local knowledge. It was a great start to the day and I was then able to spend the rest of the day exploring having got a feel for where the major things were. 100 perfect highly recommend!

Amazing Antibes Tour! - Luciana is an amazing guide! She has been a local for over twenty years. She took us to so many off the beaten path places all over the city. She knows the history, introduced us to the past and present and went above and beyond to share her expertise, answer questions and engage everyone in a three hour experience! I highly recommend booking her tour (make sure to tip!) She made us fall in love with Antibes! Thank you again for a beautiful day!
