Nice Market Tour!

After reading about Les Petits Farcis on the Fodors website and perusing the website (www.petitsfarcis.com) I became very interested in the Nice market tours that they offer.

The woman who runs the company (Rosa Jackson) is a writer and food critic who conducts tours of the market in Nice with breakfast and/or lunch tastings. It seemed like a fun way to spend some time and get a more local perspective on the Nice market. And maybe good photos opportunities!

There are a variety of tours (and prices) to choose from. After mulling it over for several days I decided to contact Rosa about doing a Saturday morning market tour with breakfast tasting for the Saturday Morning we will be in Nice. I heard back from her and booked the tour.

This tour will be on the final group tour day, which really isn't a tour "day". The tour is really over the night before at the final dinner. Since we are changing hotels I thought it would be good timing to do the market tour on Saturday morning, leave our luggage at the tour hotel and then after the market tour it will time to check into the Hotel Grimaldi where we'll be staying for an extra 4 days.

Stay tuned to find out how the tour goes...of course, you will have wait until October!
