Nice · FOOD & DRINK
26 tours
Niçoise cooking sits closer to Liguria than to Paris: socca off a hot iron, pissaladière under anchovies, petits farcis, pan bagnat eaten over a napkin. Below are the 15 best food tours, what you eat on each, how far you walk, and which ones finish with wine.
Taste Nice like a local on a 3.5-hour small-group lunch tour with pan bagnat, socca, farçis, pissaladière, macarons, and gelato.

“Even though the weather was not great as it was raining all day, Roman our tour guide + driver did an amazing job entertaining us. He took us to the perfume factory and sweet and chocolate factory which wasn’t even on the schedule. I have enjoyed my day very much and would recommend to anyone. 😀 Thank you.”
Taste Provence in Old Nice with 7 to 10 stops, wine pairings, and a Castle Hill picnic lunch.

A small-group French wine tasting in Nice with eight wines, cheese and snacks, and interactive regional lessons in English.
“It was a very good class and wine tasting. Enjoyed the wines and learning more about French wine in general. Juliette was very knowledgeable!”
See the walled village of Saint Paul de Vence and taste Provence wines at a Saint Jeannet winery on a small-group half-day tour from Nice.
“Excellent guide, beautiful sights, great wine tasting! Loved it! My only recommendation would be that the tour increases the time spent in St Paul de Vence by half an hour or so. Also, the road up the winery is very winding. It’s a good idea to take a some car sick medication if one has a tendency to feel nauseous on trips.”
Half-day organic wine tasting from Nice, with a winemaker-led cellar visit in Saint-Jeannet and an hour wandering St-Paul-de-Vence.
“A very enjoyable half day trip. We were collected, on time, to start our journey. We initially visited St Paul de Vence, a very lovely village which contained many cute shops and had a summer fete when we visited. Secondly, we visited Vignenoble Rasse, an 80 year old family run vineyard. The owner himself hosted our wine tasting, and told us about each wine, as well as the family history behind each one. I would definitely recommend!”
Sample Niçoise bites and wine in Nice Old Town, then enjoy a dinner tasting menu from Place Rossetti to Cours Saleya in 4 hours.
“It was a very nice 3+ hour tour with interesting and delicious food stops throughout Old Nice including a full dinner and gelato dessert.”
A 5-hour half-day from Nice to Saint Paul de Vence and an organic winery in Saint Jeannet for a guided tasting of six wines.
“The wine tasting section felt rushed, would have liked more time to taste the wine. Wine tour host could have also given more of an explanation about the wines. Our driver Roman was an excellent driver/tour guide.”
Small-group vineyard tour in Nice at Chateau de Bellet, with cellar walk-through and tasting 3 Bellet wines overlooking sea and Alps.
“What a very enjoyable wine tour we experienced yesterday! Our guide was super knowledgeable and very engaging. Would highly recommend it to anyone travelling to this part of the country. Keep up fantastic work! PS wine was delicious and we took away a bottle for the memories!”
Small-group Nice food and wine walk through Cours Saleya, artisan shops, and a Castle Hill picnic.

Small-group full day from Nice to Grasse perfume, Valbonne and Gourdon views, then Bellet wine tasting in the hills.
“Fantastic way to experience the surrounding area while staying in Nice. The perfumerie was such a unique experience & felt quintessentially French. Our guide was lovely as well. Would absolutely recommend for anyone looking to easily experience more of the south of France.”
A guided sunset food walk in Nice with chocolate, olive oil tastings, socca, pissaladière, wine, and homemade ice cream.
“It was such of joy to go on this food tour and this was my second time in six weeks because it was so good. Both times I had Isabelle as our tour guide. She was hugely knowledgeable and engaging. We learnt lots of history about Nice and the local food. It was very hot but Isabelle worked hard to keep us cool and in the shade. Highly recommend.”
