Private tours from Marsaille

We and four others enjoyed a lovely day in Provence in late May touring with Provence Connection. I had long wanted to visit Pont du Gard and Avignon and we were able to do so in style. Others from our roll call booked with the same company, and the manager reduced the price for our tour due to the referrals.

Following is the review I had posted on TripAdvisor ... hope it helps:

 

Since Catherine is so highly regarded, recommended and sought-after, we quickly booked her services in November 2013 for our day in Marseille seven-months later on June 16, 2014. Not only were we fortunate enough to have reserved Catherine’s personal services, but we received the added bonus of having our tour priced at her 2013 rate. Since our group of 8 was interested in visiting smaller villages, we had selected Catherine’s “The Area Of les Alpilles In Depth” tour. This was a terrific choice!

 

From the moment Catherine met us promptly at our ship, throughout the entire ride in her comfortable 8-passenger mini-van, until our return to the ship at the end of the day, Catherine provided a running commentary of the culture, history and beauty of Provence and, specifically, the les Alpilles region. She is extremely friendly, efficient, knowledgeable, and, most importantly, a safe driver. We wended our way up from the Rhone valley toward the limestone peaks to the picturesque mountain-top village of Les Baux de Provence for a wonderful visit and a sumptuous patio lunch. Then, on our way to visit Saint-Remy-de-Provence, we stopped at a winery to taste a variety of local wine, and at an olive vineyard for enticing olive-oil tasting. In Saint-Remy, Catherine guided us through the hospital at which Van Gogh had spent a year.

 

Thanks to Catherine and Tour Designer In Provence, our stop in Marseille was truly outstanding and memorable.

 

Have fun planning ... I did!
