Living in Nice now, I'm a global citizen who has called multiple countries home, fluent in English, French, and Spanish (learning Chinese now). My passion for exploration extends beyond travel to running, where I find joy in challenging myself. At the heart of my life is my beautiful family, who are my greatest source of inspiration and happiness.

Walkative was established in 2007 by a group of young enthusiasts who also happened to be licensed tour guides. Today, we operate in 20 cities in countries across all of Europe and beyond, including France, Germany, Poland, Italy, Ukraine and Israel. We have already guided more than 3 million tourists, with more than 350 000 in 2023 only! Despite this growth, we stay true to our values: be local and present the history of our cities in a professional, yet entertaining way, accessible for everybody, regardless their budget. We provide service not only in big, well established places like Berlin, Paris or Krakow, but also smaller, less known, yet no less fascinating locations, like Nice, Toruń or Lublin. We cooperate with highly trained, professional guides providing both engaging tip-based and regular fixed-price tours. And most importantly - we know our cities by heart! Join us and stay Walkative!

Winter in Nice offers a unique charm, inviting visitors to enjoy its festive atmosphere and mild climate. One of the highlights is the enchanting Marché de Noël, a traditional Christmas market located in the heart of the city. Here, you can explore wooden chalets brimming with local crafts, festive decorations, and seasonal treats. Don't forget to indulge in delicious winter specialties like socca, a chickpea pancake that warms the soul, and sip on vin chaud, a spiced mulled wine that is perfect for the cooler evenings.

As you continue your walking tour, take a leisurely stroll along the Promenade du Paillon, where you can admire the beautifully illuminated fountains and enjoy the tranquility of the park.
