Eric is so joyful and such a fun tour guide. He provides a lot of history and information about the sites. Very comfortable small van. It is a great trip! Pont du Gard is so impressive up close. Beautiful Roman coliseum in Nimes. Uzès is a quaint town with a large castle. Definitely recommend this trip!

Great day with a nice driver/guide, Eric, and very nice fellow travelers. The sites were all incredible and the day was perfect. The van was very comfortable and cool. There was ample time when the tour was over to get something to drink/eat and still visit the Popes Palace on my own later that afternoon. It was a wonderful day.

    Great trip in a small group (6 of us total). Guide was well versed in history and facts of the area and sites. Glad to have air conditioning as it was a very hot day.

    Two Great Days With Eric

    Todd_M, Jun 2026
    During our time in Provence we went on two tours with Eric - Luberon and its Perched Villages and The Story of Pont du Gard. Both tours were great! We appreciated the pace of both tours and the time allotted to experience the locations at our own pace (or to sit down at a cafe if we wanted to take a break). Eric made sure we got to experience not only the sites, but also provided time for us to experience some of the small villages that make Provence so special. He also made the drives between sites more enjoyable with great history lessons and stories about what we were seeing. We were so excited the second day to learn that we would be spending more time with Eric. We would highly recommend both tours.

    Beautiful tour and amazing guide!

    Emilie is incredible! We ended up with just our family on the tour. She was so sweet and patient with my kids, gave a thorough history of all our sites, kept the narrative going during the drive. The sites were wonderful to tour, we happened upon the weekly market at Uzes, too. She walked us through the market and helped us speak with some vendors, which she didn’t have to do! Took photos for us and really spent the time explaining the region she loves. It’s a family run business - we coincidentally met her mom at a stop while she was giving her own tour. Emilie has just the lovely, beautiful personality; I enjoyed conversing with her. My kids had such a great time, they took selfies with her. :) Book it if you can!

    My husband, his sister, and I took the half day “History of the Pont du Gard” tour. Because of her excellent reviews we signed up for Gordana’s tour. As it turned out, Gordana’s daughter Emily was our guide, along with her niece Camille, guide in training. They both obviously love sharing their knowledge about their country and its history with visitors. Both are friendly, kind, witty, and attentive to their guests. Emily did an excellent job driving. They showed us the highlights of Nimes, Uzès, and the Pont du Gard. They made sure we were comfortable, offered bottled water as needed, and patiently answered all of our questions. They even treated us to Calissons, a specialty candy of Provence. Over all it was a delightful experience. I highly recommend this tour. Other travelers, especially the elderly or mobility impaired, should be aware that it's a long walk from the parking lots to the Pont du Gard.

    Response from Host, May 2026

    Thank you for your wonderful review. We are happy to hear how much you enjoyed this half day tour with Emilie and Camille. Our goal is to give you a day to remember. We love what we do and we are glad it shows. Hope to welcome you again in another Provence adventure!

    Amazing Pont du Gard and area tour

    Gail_H, May 2026
    Eric, from Provance with Gordana tour company, was amazing. If I could give it a score of 10 on a five point scale I would!! We traveled in a clean and comfortable van with six other people, and Eric was always right there at the door to help us out of the van. He had cold water in a cooler for us. And best of all, he was very knowledgeable about the area, had a sense of humor and was very kind and professional. One of our best tours EVER!! Thank you Eric!!

    Response from Host, May 2026

    C_H, Mar 2026
    The tour is one of the best ever with a lively, fun, very knowledgable guide! Two villages with a beautiful very large statued and fountained garden and a preserved coliseum ! Then on to the aqueduct that is so large and perfect you are awestruck. My only complaint is I didn’t have more time to hike about the park and picnic. Do this tour with this wonderful guide!
