Go with ‘Expert Travel’!!! - Today I was finally able to take a tour that had been canceled twice, and Marie from ‘Expert Travel’, made it happen. The driver and guide Martina was excellent! She picked me up at agreed-upon location and was very nice and professional. She drove safely and provided very interesting information on all the locations. There was enough time at each location for wandering the streets and plenty of time for photo ops. Martina was inclusive of everyone's requests and very sensitive to the needs of everyone. I had such a good time with the other ladies on the trip. Martina’s knowledge of every location was impressive and she is informed with both history and modern information. Martina was excellent in every way. My experience with the Director of Expert Travel, Marie, provided me with a corrective experience after having had a negative experience with other travel guides. Thank you, Marie and Martina. I highly recommend Expert Travel.

Nice medieval villages - We were impressed by the little villages we visited, the history, the old Roman structures and the views from the areas. We liked the visit to the perfume factory and learning the process and how to smell each note.

Amazing tour - Our guide was engaging and informative, exactly like his name Perfait (not sure about the spelling). The medieval towns were amazing and the views were spectacular. The tour of the perfume factory was fun and a wonderful opportunity to learn more about how perfume is made.

Amazing day spent exploring - Sebastien was an amazing tour guide. He was friendly and funny and informative. The tour itself was a fantastic experience. I particularly loved having lunch in Saint-Paul-de-Vence. It was a lovely little town with spectacular views. I would highly recommend this tour!

Nice places but poor guide - It was more like a taxi ride in between beautiful places. Suggestion to Viator: use recordings for each place while en route. 5 stars to the route 1 star to the driver/guide Average/total: 3 stars

Expectations not met... - Our expectation of this tour was that there would be commentary during the trip with descriptions and stories of the towns we visited as per the description of this tour. There was no such thing. All you are paying for is a transfer from town to town. The towns were breathtaking. Skip the pergume factory tour.
