Review of a small-group Provence day trip from Nice, featuring Cannes, Grasse perfume, Gourdon, Tourrettes-sur-Loup, and Saint-Paul-de-Vence.

“The towns we visited were amazing as was the countryside we travelled, but our guide Thierey was what made our day! Such a knowledgeable person with much detail about the history of the places we toured. It made it so enjoyable to have the extra information. He was very supportive as well, to get me in and out of the vehicle due to my knee. So patient and accommodating. Overall though a magnificent day. Highly recommend to anyone who wishes a great tour of South of France Provence....”

“It was well organised and fun. Nathalie was an excellent guide. She was friendly, humorous, helpful and looked after us well. She drove us to different villages in the hills and allowed us plenty of time to explore. She took us around some spectacular sights. It was relaxing because we didn’t have to worry about the driving. The people carrier was air conditioned and comfortable and we were kept cool with cold water. A most relaxing, informative and enjoyable day.”

“The full day tip was fantastic and we were able to see so much of the area in one day. Nicolas was humorous, well informed and very practised in his delivery of information. We appreciated his excellent guiding, his tips about where to eat in the villages we visited and his in depth background knowledge about the area. Nicolas dropped us off right in town and picked us up at agreed times so we had some free time to explore, take photos or eat and drink. We really enjoyed it and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a tour to see the best of Provence!”

See Provence’s hill towns, Roussillon, Saint-Rémy, Les Baux, and Pont du Gard in one small-group day trip from Avignon.

“This was an excellent way to spend a day in Avignon. Emmanuel was a wonderful guide and we enjoyed his commentary. The trip took us to three hilltop villages in the morning and then we had to go back to Avignon to drop off one group and pick up another group that had scheduled the afternoon tour. This took time that I wish we had spent going on to the next part of our trip. The afternoon was enjoyable with a trip to beautiful St Remy and then to the Pont du Gard, which was the highlight of the trip for us. We could spend a day there and an…”

“I loved my day visiting 4 villages of Luberon! I chose to go on a Friday since that is when Lourmarin has their market. My guide was wonderful and she even did the tour in French as well, since I am learning though I was the only one there who requested the tour originally in French. The info was useful and interesting and she answered all our questions (I wish I remembered her name, this was a few months ago now). We were a group of 6 and got to know each other a bit, but we also had our free time in the villages to explore. We had enough…”
