Frequently asked questions
I’d love a spooky evening in Nice—what should I try?
Step into the eerie side of the city with Ghosts of the Riviera: The Mystery of Nice’s Lost Souls. This self-guided mystery walk takes you through atmospheric streets and hidden corners while you solve clues and uncover ghostly legends.
Is this a fun date-night idea?
Absolutely. Walking through Old Town at dusk, following haunting stories together, and solving puzzles side by side creates a mix of romance and thrill. It’s a unique alternative to dinner and drinks.
Can families play, or is it too scary for kids?
It’s more mysterious than frightening. Older kids and teens who like legends and detective stories will have a blast. You can move at your own pace, take breaks, and keep it light-hearted for younger players.
I’m traveling solo—will I still enjoy this?

What spots will I discover during the walk?
Expect beautiful yet moody places like Monument aux Morts, Place Masséna, and narrow Old Town lanes lit by evening lamps. Some stops are well-known, others are quiet corners even locals overlook.
