The selection of villages visited were beautiful, charming & unique.  The amount of time for each town visit was well planned & sufficient.   What made this tour exceptional, was the beautiful weather, a very nice group of people from New York, Australia & Vietnam and most of all, having the good fortune of having Gordana’s daughter, Emilie, as our guide.  She made this excellent tour fabulous. Her passion for Provence was authentic & contagious.   Her attentiveness for making sure everyone was comfortable, felt included & having a good time was extraordinary.  We highly recommend this tour!”
