Great side trip from Avignon - Fantastic trip to see the best of the Luberon villages. Our guide Jis was a great driver and informative guide. We had enough free time to explore by ourselves without any rush. Highly recommend

Great tour; worth the funds to see & learn of this beautiful area. - Our guide was great! Knowledgeable, safe driver, and informative of more than just the itinerary. So sorry I don’t have his name. My favorite site was Roussilion; though everything was interesting to see and learn about. Just a drive into this beautiful area was a treat.

Stunning Luberon - After spending three wonderful days in the center of Avignon I knew there was another side of Provence that I wanted to see. This tour took us to 4 different, stunning hilltop villages in the countryside of Luberon. At each stop we had just the right amount of time to wander, take pictures, and absorb the ambience of the area. For me, walking through these villages is like being in a fairy tale. Our guide and driver, Émile, shared a wealth of information while we drove around and when we arrived at each location. He told us about the region, it’s deep history and current day, and he made us all feel very much at ease asking any kind of questions . The van was comfortable, the villages are amazing, and Émile is a knowledgeable, personable, funny and profession guide!

Excellent Tour of Lovely Luberon Towns - Jus was very engaging, provided many insights as to the history of the Luberon area and its culture, and further gave us tips/comments about the towns we visited. He also told many humorous stories while driving between towns. Regarding the towns themselves, I loved Roussillon’s red color themed villa the best with its quaint lanes and shops. It was fun to explore. Gorses and Bonnieux are also beautiful and unique. Loved this tour and strongly recommend it!

Colourful introduction - Nice introduction to some of the villages of the Lubéron. Do the colour walk at Roussillon. The climb to the top of the village is a bit of an anti climax.
