How to make the most of your time in Provence - A la Francaise supplied us with 2 excellent tour guides over 3 days of activities. Adrien (AD) and Remy were excellent and knowledgeable guides. AD took us on busy day in Arles, Les Baux and St Remy. We were in a group of 6 people and AD started us off with some ice breaking conversations so that we could get to know each other. He then told us things about the region that we did not know in an entertaining and interesting way. We were delighted that he was also our guide for a wine tour the next day. In addition to being knowledgeable about the tour, he gave us plenty of information about the geography and history of the region. Our final tour to Avignon was with Remy. It was a private tour with a cooking class as well as a historical tour. Remy was knowledgeable about his subject matter and took us on a fascinating tour of the Papal Palace. A la Francaise has a fleet of comfortable mini-vans with seating for 7 or 8 people. With only 4 full days in Provence we were determined to experience as much as we could and AD and Remy ensured that we got the most out of our time. We would highly recommend the tours that A la Francaise offers.

Sebastian was a stellar guide. - After the experience of the first guide from this company, I thought the second guide was good, but with the experience of Sebastian on the third trip we thought he was excellent, He blew the other ones out of the water/‘bus’, informative and obviously loved sharing his knowledge.

Go with Greg! - Greg was wonderful. He is very knowledgeable about the area, very personable and funny, and caring about each individual. I did two tours with him. One was wine tasting and the other was the villages of Liberon. Both tours were phenomenal, a lot because of him!

Three beautiful places in one day! - We had a super day visiting these three very different places and we were lucky with our guide Morgane who was knowledgeable, friendly and adaptable. Arles was my personal favourite with all the fabulous Roman architecture and history and I would like to come back and spend longer there. Les Baux was charming and quite unique, almost growing out of the rocks with some amazing views. St Remy was elegant and calm with great shopping opportunities. All in all, a terrific and day and a great way to see these places if you do not have a car.

Disappointed in being dropped off to tour towns on our own. - Arles is a fantastic city. Experience would been better if guide had led us for more than the first 15 minutes of the tour.
