This allowed us to have a quick, guided view of many highlights of Provence. Means though that you don’t have a lot of time at all of them. Salina was an excellent guide - we learned a lot.
We loved the tour; it is highly recommended for seeing beautiful little towns in Provence in a day if there is no time or mobility to explore it another way. The schedule was followed, and the time at each stop was adequate. Our guide, Nicolas, was very kind, friendly, and undoubtedly contributed to making the tour more enjoyable. We recommend the experience 100%.
Hello Thank you very much for taking the time to share your experience on this tour - We are so pleased that you enjoyed this full day tour of Provence, visiting some of the best villages. We are also happy you enjoyed our guide Nicolas and his expertise ! Best regards Provence Panorama
Frederico was absolutely perfect! He was knowledgeable, funny, and was genuinely fun to be around all day. I cannot say enough good things about his service and tour! The little towns throughout the area are all different and interesting. We especially appreciated the Spring, Le Beaux, and Pont du Gard. Extra special thanks to the tour company who honored our reservation during an especially low time of the season when other tour companies were canceling on us. I genuinely appreciated the tour company keeping their word!
This tour took us to some beautiful and picturesque places, which were high on our bucket list. Unfortunately we were in the back seat of the minivan and could not hear a word of the commentary. At our first stop, we advised Hubert, our driver/guide that we couldn’t hear him , which he acknowledged that he knew. I asked if he had a microphone so we could hear. No he didn’t. And that was that. He didn’t speak any louder so we could hear and so we were just sight seeing with no commentary on where we were, what we were looking at or any history that went with each place, until we got to the last stop at Pont du Gard. At every stop, we were given a time to return. Hubert didn’t give us a walking tour and so we still weren’t given any information on the places we saw. Hubert was a nice man, helping us out of the van and taking some photos for us at Roussillon. Overall this was a hugely disappointing experience and tour, as this was one of the tours we were looking forward to most on our journey around France. Possibly with a different guide, the experience would have been amazing.
A wonderful way to see several of the best villages and sights of Provence around Avignon. Nickola was an excellent guide. He was thoughtful, knowledgeable,clear and fun.
Nice way to visit several smaller villages in Provence as well as a couple of UN Heritage sites. There were 8 people in our van.
By taking the tour my husband and myself, and two other couples, saved ourselves a lot of sweat of figuring out logistics to see 6 top Provence attractions in the vicinity of Avignon. Just driving itself would be nerve-wracking. Instead we were VIP delivered right to the centres of hilltop villages, picturesque towns and Pont du Gard. Yes, we had to be disciplined and respectful of time. Frederic was our delightful and extremely knowledgeable guide. He used the time on the road to comment on the upcoming attraction, to answer our questions and to give us practical advice. He had maps for us and loads of interesting insights. We got great value for the price and treasured memories.
Brigitte was an excellent hostess. From 8.30 am until 7 pm, she took us on an introductory tour of Provence. While driving, she also explained to us the history and way of life in Provence, in both fluent English and French. No mean feat ! She also tailored the excursion to our interests and needs ( we were seven in the group). When we booked, we thought the tour rather expensive, but now we would say it was money well spent, as it would have been impossible to pack in everywhere we went, especially using public transport. To Brigitte we would like to say a big,"merci".
A taste of the various villages in Provence with beautiful scenery. Unfortunately felt somewhat rushed and the directions on where to go were not always clear.
What a lovely experience! Great guide, lovely places in S France. Everything was perfect and certainly recommend it x
