    So Provence did an excellent job planning our trip for us! They organized tours that immersed us in the flavor of Provence. Every tour leader was punctual, friendly and very knowledgeable! They made sure we had every transportation connection.

    I had a really wonderful time on this holiday. Aix is beautiful and the hotel was fantastic, perfectly situated in the middle of Aix. The daily excursions were excellent. Travelling in an 8 seater is a great way to get to know people. The guides were amusing and encouraged us to talk. Restaurant meal was excellent. Altogether a brilliant 5 days. Great for a recharge of batteries. Lots of variety without being exhausted. Thank you Simon for your organisation. Only glitch was the beginning when the taxi driver from the station was held up and I wasn’t sure what to do, also a little mix up with the hotel about payments. These were soon solved by contact with Simon who was very helpful. Thanks for everything.

    We enjoyed our tour of the hinterlands very much. Simon was wonderful to work with during the planning and pre-trip process. The boutique hotel had a wonderful staff who were happy to help in anyway that they could. It was wonderful to stay in one place for all four nights. The E bike tour was most enjoyable and Jerome was a wonderful guide. The tour to the Luberon villages was delightful. We very much enjoyed strolling through each of the villages. The wine tour was not what we are used to in the US. It was a bit disappointing that there was nowhere to sit to enjoy the tasting and felt quite rushed. The shuttle drivers that Simon had arranged for us were very professional and prompt. The vehicles were clean and we felt very safe. Aix-en-Provence is a beautiful village, larger and a bit busier than we anticipated.

    Simon is very friendly, helpful and flexible when we wanted change of plan. We only wish the tour schedule could be tighter. We had a lot of free time considering such a short tour. Overall, all the people we encountered are very nice and we had very pleasant experience with the tour.

    Outstanding service from Simon in Marseille who organised all the bookings for us. The dinner at Mikal Favel was outstanding as was the e-bike Tour in the steps of Cezanne.
