WHAT TO DO ANTIBES
Following the creation of Antibes Free Walking Tours, our company needed to evolve as new tours were on high demand, this is why I launched This new website. Many of our visitors were always asking “What should we do while on holiday in Antibes?!”
Therefore, it was making total sense to create this platform where you’ll find all the tours that we provide in Antibes. In addition, a blog is coming soon covering what “else” to do in Antibes.
Joining one of our tours is the best way to discover all of what Antibes has to offer. However, we will also provide further tips to make the most of your stay in our fantastic seaside village!

Lucica's Story
Hi everyone,
I’m Lucica, Italian born but been living in Antibes for many years where we had a family house for a long long time.
My experience with travel and exploring around started when I was really little with my family. My mum is a teacher and pass me the love for the literature, my father love art and paintings and he taught me how to recognize the different styles and to appreciate them.
I lived in different country and I worked on cruise ships, that gave me the possibility to travel and meet lot of different people and culture. Being a tour guide for many years, I’ve been touring people in many countries and places and i’m now ready to share my love with the South of France with you all!
I’m a really open minded, and an easy going person.
Why you should join me on a tour?
Travelling, discover new things and places is my passion, when I walk around often I stop and go on about the beauty that surrounds me. During the tours, I always try to transmit those emotions through a trip from past to present, from art and architecture to literature and cinema, showing the main attraction but as well the less common places but really unique.
People tell me that the way I tell the story and little anecdotes, I convey all my passion for my work, showing our wonderful French Riviera through my eyes.
