Guided by the then official executioner, an engaging and somewhat awkward character, explore the picturesque streets of Old Nice on a colourful guided tour.

Explore with him the alleys, doors and stones full of history of old Nice, while discovering the intrigues of a Mediterranean city where local traditions and French influences mix. You will discover the heritage of the early 19th century where every corner becomes the scene of captivating stories.
