The keyboard shortcuts for Nautilus are mapped in the ~/.config/nautilus/accels file. From there I deduced that:

Ctrl+Page Down is used to switch to next tab.
Ctrl+Page Up is used to switch to previous tab.
Alt+1 is used to switch to first tab.
Alt+2 is used to switch to second tab.
Alt+3 is used to switch to third tab.
Alt+4 is used to switch to tab 4.
Alt+5 is used to switch to tab 5.
Alt+6 is used to switch to tab 6.
Alt+7 is used to switch to tab 7.
Alt+8 is used to switch to tab 8.
Alt+9 is used to switch to tab 9.
Alt+0 is used to switch to tab 10.
