Food tour in Aix - We had a delightful food tour with Albane. She was attentive and knowledgable, providing history and insights along the way. We did the tour on our first full day in Aix, and it was extremely helpful to acclimate us to the area. The food was delicious - especially our lunch and dessert! Albane was very willing to make other recommendations and offer assistance if needed during the rest of our stay. By the time we parted ways, we felt like we were just five friends wandering the city, instead of a tour.

Perfect tour with a perfect guide - This is just a perfect tour to get to know Aix and Provençal specialties. Anouk was an excellent guide; knowledgeable, pleasant and helpful. She contacted me in advance for introduction and made our rendezvous so much easier. Also, the length of the tour was perfect; not too long and not too short. The sit down lunch was a plus. Highly recommended!
