Unusual Walks: Discover Nice in a Different Way

Most people come to Nice for its beaches, its Promenade des Anglais, or its museums. But if you're looking to explore beyond the postcard image, then unusual walks in Nice are the best way to truly understand the city’s soul. Whether you love street art, hidden alleys, quirky history or offbeat photo spots, there’s a route for you.

Let’s dive into the most unique ways to walk through Nice — and why they're unforgettable.

1. The Secret Nice Tour: Local Legends and Forgotten Places

This walk takes you through quiet streets, hidden courtyards, and secret passageways where locals live and breathe. You’ll hear strange stories, explore unexpected perspectives, and learn about parts of the city even many residents don’t know.

It’s a mix of urban myths, political tales, and architecture hidden in plain sight.

2. Street Art and Creative Corners

Nice is not just about old stones and Belle Époque buildings. Join a street art-focused walking tour to discover colorful murals, graffiti pieces, and stencil art. Every wall tells a story — and your guide will help you read it.

These walks reveal the city’s modern artistic pulse, often missing from classic tours.

3. Photo Walk at Golden Hour

If you're into photography or Instagram-worthy views, this unusual walk is perfect. You'll explore the Coulée Verte, Castle Hill, and Old Town just before sunset, with stops chosen for light, texture, and contrast.

Some tours even include a professional photographer to capture your journey.

4. Wine & Walk Tour in Old Town

Why not mix walking with tasting? Some of the best guided walks in Nice include short breaks to sip local wines, try a piece of cheese, or enjoy a panoramic view. This version of a walk is slow, delicious, and deeply connected to local culture.

5. Themed Walks: From Scandals to Superstitions

Want something totally unexpected? Try a tour that focuses on scandalous stories, ghost legends, or even superstitions and symbols carved into Nice’s architecture.

These tours are often funny, strange, and deeply memorable.

Why Choose Unusual Walks Over Classic Tours?

You’ll get more than dates and names. These walks offer emotion, surprise, and connection. You’re not just learning facts — you’re feeling the city. You walk slower, look deeper, and actually see things.
