Go with Greg! - Greg was wonderful. He is very knowledgeable about the area, very personable and funny, and caring about each individual. I did two tours with him. One was wine tasting and the other was the villages of Liberon. Both tours were phenomenal, a lot because of him!

Three beautiful places in one day! - We had a super day visiting these three very different places and we were lucky with our guide Morgane who was knowledgeable, friendly and adaptable. Arles was my personal favourite with all the fabulous Roman architecture and history and I would like to come back and spend longer there. Les Baux was charming and quite unique, almost growing out of the rocks with some amazing views. St Remy was elegant and calm with great shopping opportunities. All in all, a terrific and day and a great way to see these places if you do not have a car.

Wonderful Day! - Arles and LesBaux were fabulous. Saint-Remy I could do without, especially because I wanted more time in the other two places. Saint remy just seemed touristy. Our guide, Morgan, was great!

Fantastic day out! - We took this tour from Marseille as part of a city break. It was wonderful to visit the village and market at St Rémy and to have the option to visit the hospital where Van Gogh lived for a year. Les Baux is beautiful and well worth visiting with mountain views and great shops and restaurants. Arles was quiet and restful with so many Roman remains and again great cafés and small arty shops. Well worth doing and the 8-seater car was cool and comfortable and our guide, Morgane, was superb.

A Great Day!! - Our guide Sebastian expertly drove us around and gave us time to explore the towns and see where Van Gogh worked and recovered while in the south of France. The countryside is breathtaking and well worth the time to explore. Each town offered its own unique charm and we had lots of time to visit the sites, explore the markets and do some shopping. A great day all around.

Great Intro tour for the South of France! - We went on a tour to Arles, Les Beaux and Saint Remy yesterday. We were very pleased with the experience. Sebastien was a great guide for our first ever tour in France. He was very informative and friendly. The pace of the tour was just right. We were able to see and appreciate the sights while keeping to the schedule. We enjoyed the market at Arles, the view and structures in Les Beaux, and the laid back charm of Saint Remy.

Enjoy Arles, Les Baux and Saint-Remy in a day - Our guide Greg made it a memorable experience. In addition to giving us ample free time to explore each of the three stopover points, he provided during the drive a detailed but entertaining explanation of the history and geography of the region. He also provided an excellent overview of wine-growing in the region. We would in fact recommend any local tour where Greg is your guide.

A great way to see contrasting aspects of Provence - A fantastic tour giving you some wonderful contrasting aspects of the region (village market, mountain town, Gallo-Roman city). Just the right amount of guided insight and free time to explore yourself. Our guide (Sebastien) was both knowledgable and good company. The tour is great value too.
