Don’t miss this tour!

I’m a history buff and Jerome fulfilled my curiosity. One of the best guides I’ve encountered, he gave well-rounded and well-explained highlights of Avignon making you want to return for more history. He is also passionate and prideful about the city, the peoples, the culture and the arts. I truly recommend a tour with Jerome. He made my trip!

Great Tour!

This tour exceeded our expectations. Our tour guide, Joe, was fantastic. He was so knowledgeable and entertaining, and a real pleasure to be with for the tour. We learned so much from him. And the wine was just delicious. We did this in the morning and were concerned it would be too early to drink, but definitely not the case. Joe is in the right line of business as a tour guide and it shows.
