The true best of the French Riviera and its authenticity go beyond the beaches, yachts, and flashy spirit. To put it simply, it’s further from the coast but closer to the heart. Bike tours with tastings of local specialties (beer/wine/cheese…) are the perfect way to experience it.

THE TEAM

French Riviera Like a Local is an event agency based on the French Riviera that offers eco-friendly team-building activities (electric bikes, scooters, and hiking) in line with the “slow tourism” trend. We also organize visits to local breweries/vineyards for beer, wine, and cheese tastings, adding the element of “reward after the effort.”

AND IT COMES FROM THE HEART

A cycling guide, but above all, a lover of the region, its cuisine, and the locals – a deeply passionate connection between my three loves – cycling, event organization, and a taste for adventure. At French Riviera Like a Local, we firmly believe that the best way to immerse yourself in a region and truly discover it is through its inhabitants, their know-how, and the local culture. Our bike tours aim to refresh your perception of the world, connect you with people as if you were family or long-lost friends, and make you truly feel like a local.

THEY LOVED IT

BIKE N’BEER, OCTOBRE

A fantastic riding and beer tasting experience last weekend. Thanks Aleksandra for being the good vibes catalyst between the riders, and the Blue Coast beer brewer. A discovery so close to Nice, with as well an interesting bike ride itinerary prettified by panoramic views on wineyards along the way. Julien Malfait

BIKE N’WINE, AOUT

En groupe, bien accompagné, j ai vécu une découverte heureuse adaptée aux amants d histoire, de vin et pour les curieux de traditions dans l’ authenticité de la Côte d Azur. Sans hésiter, allez goûter ces vins avec vos proches car la côte d azur n’est pas seulement plage et yachts. stefano matteucci

BIKE N’LEMON

Perfect way to explore the region, immerse into local culture and meet new people! Aleksandra is your best host – very punctual, fun and knowledgable.

Aleksandra and Chris provided a wonderful service during my trip to Nice. I did two guided rides with them on amazing routes along the coast and into the mountains, which were spectacular! They were also very helpful providing me with local information and picking me up from the airport too. They are both helpful and friendly and I would highly recommend them for those looking to do cycling around Nice and the wider Cote d'Azur area!

I contacted Alessandra for help renting a bike she helped find the perfect road bike and set up with a local cyclist to tour some of the lesser known but neurotic areas. Some amazing riding, Climbing descending and in general great service. If want something spectacular use her for anything local in the French Riviera just plain awesome!

Aleks is a great tour guide! She knows all the best local spots! I contacted her for help with mountain and gravel biking in the area and even though this wasn’t her specialty she made all the connections so that I could have a great experience. She also shared information about great hikes, restaurants, beaches and various other insights that you can only get from a local. My vacation was much better having met her than it would have been. I highly recommend her to anyone who’s traveling to the French Riviera!

We enjoyed our guided road ride with Aleksandra from Nice over the Col D’ Eze. In advance, she reserved bikes for us and designed an outing based on our requests. Everything went as planned and we had a wonderful day riding at a nice pace with incredible views. I highly recommend Aleksandra and riding in this area!
