Paul_L, Aug 2026

Wonderful Provence

This is an absolutely wonderful tour. We visited 5 beautiful Provençal towns, as well as the Pont de Garde, each with its own unique charm. Our wonderful tour guide Emilie could not have been more engaging. She knows the area very well, as well as its history and is clearly very passionate about Provence and its extraordinary beauty. This is without doubt the most enjoyable tour we’ve ever been on. Thank you Emilie for making it so special!

Wine Tasting Tour at Châteauneuf du Pape

Emily, our tour guide was...

Emily, our tour guide was engaging with all of us (6) on the tour. She made it feel more personal than being on a busload of strangers. After the second winery stop, I realized this was not a 3 hour tour. With Emily's help and the wonderful consideration of the other two couples, they got us back to our ship before it left the port. I sincerely thank all of you for helping us in a panic situation. When I booked the tour I thought it was a 3 hour tour (see copied text from Viator below), but turns out it was for 5 hours. Itinerary Chateauneuf-du-Pape Châteauneuf-du-Pape is one of the most famous names in wine. The landscape here is sun-baked, with stony, sandy soils, dry scrubland, and of course, lots of vines. Châteauneuf-du-Pape has served as a gateway to the wine world. If you get a taste for this region’s wines, chances are, you’re going to be hooked. 3 hours • Admission Ticket Free Read more about - Wine Tasting Tour at Châteauneuf du Pape - https://www.viator.com/tours/Avignon/Wine-tasting-tour/d483-5502952P4?mcid=56757

A memorable day in Provence

Our tour guide was excellent. She provided us with many details; interesting facts and history of the areas we visited. The small group was perfect for us. We enjoyed the time we had to explore the small villages and the Pont du Gard on our own. They were each very scenic and very different.

10 out of 10 stars!⭐️

Emily was one of the best tour guides I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting! She has personality plus and just made learning and experiencing the local villages a delight. It felt like I was a local hanging out with a family friend. Emily’s cast knowledge of the areas history is impressive and she was eager to answer all questions. She has excellent navigation and drives through the villages and towns flawlessly. Emily made a point to keep us hydrated and comfortable. She is more than a guide, I would say she’s an Ambassador for Tourism because she left me wanting to take every other tour her company offers. Emily has impeccable communication skills and her English is perfect! 10 out of 10 stars - Thank you Emily (and Gordona & Eric)

This tour guide deserves 10 stars! When our train was delayed, she went above and beyond by picking us up right at the station. It was an incredibly hot day, but she never lost her enthusiasm.

Great food and bonus shopping as desired

Our guide was so understanding. She explained some of the local nuances with food like olive oil in ice cream. I plan to try this at home now!!!! She went out of her way to find me a tea shop. She got our dessert to go when she realized we'd miss our train otherwise then went with us to the train station to be sure we were OK. She also explained the local festival going on. She was great. This is worth trying

Enjoy French wine while you learn, what’s not to like
