He shared the town’s history on the way and during the whole tour. Excellent! Even though it was a 9 am tour, we didn’t start tastings until 10:30 or so. Both vineyards were excellent and the guides there were very informative and taught us a lot about the grapes and wines of chateauneuf du pape. Highly recommend!”

Review of Provence in One Day from Avignon, covering Roussillon, Gordes, Pont du Gard, and more in an eight-person minivan.
“We visited some amazing places in Provence that we probably would not have seen otherwise. The tour guide was reallly good at stopping for photos and took great pictures. We would have appreciated more commentary as we were driving about the country side, history, things we were seeing. The guide was kind to buy us a coffee at a morning stop and water after our last stop, both of which were much appreciated. By afternoon our guide was barely talking. It seemed off that we started our tour in Avignon, then by early afternoon we’re back on Avignon to pick up a half day group. Would have rather just continued…”
Review of Avignon’s half-day Luberon lavender tour, with Roussillon, Gordes, Sénanque Abbey, timing, value, and practical tips.
“Emilie was incredible! She made it a point to make everyone feel welcome and explain the French way of life/things. She made it feel like we were a band of friends going on a road trip together. She was so charming and had excellent stories and tips the entire trip. We loved how philosophical she was about life and life in Avignon. It was special to learn from a local how she views Avignon and the Lady Lavender. The hospitality was top notch and I hope to try to book a different tour with her in the future.”
