Fantastic guide and a wonderful day in Provence - Full disclosure, our original tour was cancelled the day before we were scheduled to go because of a vehicle problem. We were offered a slightly different itinerary for a trip on the same day and time. Because we were coming in on a cruise ship, we chose the new trip. The communication from the tour provider was excellent. There was some complexity in finding the driver at port but I was contacted via WhatsApp and we were able to get things sorted and on our way. The team was patient and helpful while this was happening. As for the tour itself, the van was a very comfortable Mercedes van with good AC. Our tour guide, Emmanuel, was excellent. He spoke English very well and his knowledge of Provence and the surrounding areas was excellent. I loved all the stops we made and he always had great suggestions for photos or things to do and see. He really could not have been better. So while we ended up being on a slightly different tour than we planned, it could not have turned out better. I loved this tour and it was one of the highlights of the trip. Thank you Emmanuel for such a great tour of the Luberon!

Fantastic day to never forget with Pepe - No better than Pepe! He was so friendly, engaging, interested and knowledgeable. The information we received was tremendous while traveling in the car between locations and sight seeing. The balance of personal time as a family and the tour was perfect! He was great with my kids (12,10) and you could just feel his passion for the South of France and what it has to offer.

Wonderful tour. Beautiful areas to see. Be prepared to walk a bit more than average. - A very good tour leaving Marseille. Most of our time was spent in Cassis and Aix En Provence. We took a boat ride in Cassis to see some hidden gems of coves. The pastries were delicious. We walked and ate in Aix En Provence. Beautiful city. Our guide Remmy did a good job of communicating history and answering questions. We had 'those' fellow tourists who asked idiotic questions all the time, and Remmy navigated them well for the benefits of the rest of us.

Our host was a real professional! - Thomas M, our guide, was amazing! He was attentive and knowledgeable and friendly and positive. On a hot day he allowed us to tweak our time with him to stay cool! He gave us a nice balance between guided activities and free time. Thanks especially for the wonderful air conditioning in your vehicle.

Great option for a cruise excursion - Our guide, Arnaud, was very kind. He drove us first to Aix where we wandered around and shopped. He then drove us to Cassis where we had lunch overlooking the water and did a little shopping. Arnaud gave us a lot of information about the areas while we were driving.

It was a good day with... - It was a good day with Pepe. We had comfortable van in which we travelled to Aix and Cassis. Lots of free time in each location, to explore on our own, all made easier with his explanations of the area. Pepe showed us beautiful views of the mountains and the sea!! I definitely recommend this tour.
