About this tour
A two-hour walking tour through Antibes' compact old town, led by a local guide who navigates both the polished landmarks and tucked-away corners most visitors miss. You'll weave through narrow medieval laneways, see the working port, explore the weekly market bustle, and spot contemporary street art alongside centuries-old stonework. The guide shares stories of Antibes' layered past, current neighbourhood life, and steers you toward worthwhile beaches, eateries, and things to do beyond the walk itself.

What to expect
Expect a steady pace through compact, uneven streets—comfortable shoes are essential. Your guide will pause frequently at key corners and squares to explain what you're seeing, from defensive ramparts to merchant quarters. The market section gets busy mid-morning; the route adapts to foot traffic. You'll cover roughly 3–4 kilometres on foot, with short stops for photos and context. The walk balances tourist highlights with quieter residential pockets where locals actually spend time.
Good to know
Wear sturdy walking shoes; cobblestones are uneven. The tour works in all seasons but midday summer heat intensifies narrow-street walking. Public transport links the old town to surrounding areas. Service animals are welcome. No strenuous climbing, though some streets slope.
