Beauté intemporelle du Luberon, Boutique Vignobles & Lourmarin

For three gorgeous days Laurent was the perfect guide for me. He was relaxed and fun yet filled with information about the art, history, villages and beautiful landscapes of Provence. I felt like i was traveling with a friend who had many interests that aligned with mine . The experience totally met my expectations and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to folks with Provençal travel plans.

Where do we begin! We had such a lovely time with Christopher. He provided us with such a comfortable, fun, and relaxing experience. We arranged to have him swing by our hotel to pick us up, and transportation was amazing; his car is so well maintained and very clean which we really appreciated. Christopher’s calm, friendly demeanor made him a great guide. It was like traveling with a friend. He is clearly loved by many of the attendants at each location, which speaks to his character. We learned a lot about wine, the olive oil process, history of the castle & towns, and more (he is a wealth of knowledge - from nature, to art, to food, etc. He gave us great insight about food pairings with different wines which we loved, as that’s tricky for us to decide. Overall, a lovely day with an amazing guide - you will NOT be disappointed!

Our tour with Chris was a wonderful way to spend a day exploring the Luberon Valley. From the moment he picked us up at our hotel in Arles, he provided an experience that was educational and more importantly, FUN. We visited vineyards and an olive oil mill and were able to sample some lovely understated wines and some pretty mind-blowing olive oil varieties. Chris ferried us all about and took us to grab a quick bite in Lourmarin before visiting the Chateau du Lourmarin. We did a good bit of riding but Chris paced out the stops so that it didn’t feel like we were trapped in the car and we enjoyed plenty of walking around some gorgeous places. Our time chatting and walking around with Chris didn’t feel so much like a guided tour as a visit with a friend. We truly enjoyed his company and cannot recommend OohProvence tours enough. If you are looking for an immersive experience that isn’t too serious (although I’m sure they could be if that was your thing), then reach out to Chris and Laurent.

ne of the highlights on our recent Mediterranean cruise was the opportunity to spend the day with OohProvence and Christopher Curtis. After arriving in Marseille, Christopher picked us up at the cruise dock and we spent an amazing day exploring some of the less crowded areas of Provence--an olive farm, a farmer's market, a castle and some wonderful wine tasting. Chris was a great communicator (in English and French) and had some fantastic ideas for a wide range of activities that we would never have known about. He was also careful to get us back to the ship on time for sailing that night. I highly recommend OohProvence for your guide to Provence--luxurious and stress-free.
