    Yes, please! We love seeing videos of specific neighborhoods that are more residential than tourist areas. Particularly inside shops as most videos focus on eateries instead of retail. I'd also like to see rental options for those of us not yet ready to buy an apartment.
  • @islandbreeze2102
    Yes! More neighborhoods please!! This video is wonderful. Seems like most videos of Nice on YouTubie keep showing us the same thing over and over again: Promenade des Anglais, Vieux Nice, the Marché Aux Fleurs and such. Finally you 2 came along and are going to show us the real Nice where the locals live and shop. Beyond the tourist areas. Thank you!!
  • @LC1-958
    Yours are the best videos of Nice. We've been several times since 2000 and thought we'd covered most of it.....until you both came along. Thank you for sharing these less obvious places to experience. Keep em coming for as long as you can 👍👍👍👍
  • @annedodd5888
    Very enjoyable & informative. More, please….😊😊
  • @angelicapeach858
    Enjoyed your tour very much❣️ If you would please also do some Rentals and their prices, maybe more about the lifestyle and available transportation, that would be very helpful and wonderful. Merci 🙏🏼
  • @ilonagabrielle
    Love it! I would love to see more videos from Nice, France!!
  • @jamesrainbow2118
    Thank you for your “introductions”! Very timely indeed, as we retirees plan to move to Nice this Summer? Fall? We visit in May, so happy to discover the various neighborhoods suitable for expats.😊 We would be particularly interested to learn the cost ( even ball park?) of the apartments that you show - will you only show sales or will you demonstrate rental apartments as well? Very appreciative to all the exposure! Merci !

    What a beautiful city. Thanks for sharing.
  • First- it was such a pleasure meeting you on the street in Beaulieu sur Mer in February! Definitely serendipitous and such a treat for us! Ironically, as we watched this video of Nice, you were right below our apartment in the Carabacel (we stayed just above the Librarie Massena). Crazy! Anyway, thank you so much for this video - we are moving to Nice in February and are really trying to narrow down where we want to be. We'll be in Beaulieu for a month in Sept/Oct but will also be looking in Nice - we'd love to see more neighborhoods - especially apartment inside Cimiez/Rimier as well as the Musicien and Liberation areas as well. Thank you so much for what you do - we really appreciate you! Hope to see you again - Christy and Naser
