Our tour guide Ines was... - Our tour guide Ines was wonderful! She helped us make good use of our time and provided interesting information about the area. If you have the option, I recommend visiting The Monastery of St. Paul de Mausole, where Vincent Van Gogh was cared for and painted many of his famous works.

It requires a lot of... - It requires a lot of walking uphill at Les Baux to see beautiful vistas but worth the effort if you can. Camille was an excellent guide, personable yet professional. She knows so many of history’s back stories. Excellent use of time!!!!

Great Private Tour of Arles and St Remy - We booked a private tour because my mother is elderly and we wanted to skip Les Baux because of the steep hills, for more time in Arles. We are so glad we did. Arles turned out to be our favorite town in Provence. Our guide, Jehanne, was so kind and patient. She stayed with my mother when she needed to rest. Her English is extraordinary and her knowledge of history is extensive. We learned so much more on a private tour. She showed us hidden gems and helped us find a great restaurant, away from the tourists. We also spent a long time at Saint-Paul de Mausole, a beautiful and interesting psychiatric home in a monastery where Van Gogh spent a year in isolation, painting some of his most famous works. Unfortunately group tours skip this sight, as it probably gets quite crowded. We spent a total of three weeks in Provence this year and we all agreed this tour was the highlight.

Highly recommend! - Camille was a great tour guide. She was very knowledgeable about the history of the areas we visited. This was a great way for us to explore Provence. We had lunch in Saint Remy and I wish I would have looked up restaurants beforehand so that we wouldn’t have wasted time looking for a place to eat. However, Camille did provide lunch recommendations.

Lots of interesting sites to see - Really nice drive into the country side , especially the visit to the very old hill top town of lesbaux ! Great views of the rocky area below ! Plenty of time to enjoy lunch and see enough of the very touristy town . The displays in Arles calling out locations were Vangogh was inspired were disappointing for the lack of information provided in English and the care or lack there of the painting replicates ! Driver was friendly and answered questions but lack of experience in calling out the details on the Arles walking tour was evident !
