Une Visite Authentique et Chaleureuse d'Aix en Provence

Caroline was a wonderful guide for my first day in Aix. As someone who has lived and raised her family in Aix, she knows all the nooks and crannies, not just the major sights. I was grateful to know where to find the public toilets, the library (for a quiet morning to catch up on correspondence) , authentic cafes, and shops for unique souvenirs. As a solo traveler, I was grateful for Carolyn’s follow up messages to help increase my enjoyment of Aix.

Fantastic tour! We had a wonderful tour of Aix-en-Provence with Caroline. She was incredibly engaging and enthusiastic from start to finish, which made the experience both informative and fun. What really stood out was how attentive she was to our five-year-old—she kept him entertained the entire time while still delivering a rich and detailed tour for the adults. Caroline’s attention to detail was amazing. She pointed out fascinating features of the buildings, took us inside several of them, and shared details we never would have noticed on our own. She is kind, funny, and clearly passionate about her city. Even before the tour, she was excellent with communication and reached out on WhatsApp with thoughtful recommendations for restaurants and kid-friendly activities. It was clear she genuinely wanted us to have a great time in Aix-en-Provence. We truly had a fantastic experience and would highly recommend her.

Caroline is an outstanding guide - very personable, enthusiastic, and highly prepared. She grew up in the region and uses personal recollection and photographs to allow comparisons of past and present. Sĥe pointed out important details and led us into spaces we otherwise would have overlooked. She adds many stories and histories along the way. The tour added immeasurably to our appreciation of this beautiful city.

We enjoyed a wonderful tour through Aix-en-Provence with Caroline! Her knowledge and passion for the area came through at each stop, as she explained significant facts related to history, culture, food and the lifestyle of current residents. We came away with a deep appreciation for the city, and a strong desire to return on a future trip for a longer stay.

Aix en Province is a lovely & interesting small town to visit in Provence. We were delighted to find an excellent vegan restaurant called Drôle d’Endroit as this difficult in France. Draw back is TGV station being outside the city centre which is rather inconvenient ! October was a great month to visit as the weather was warm & sunny & less tourism !

Caroline communicated several times before our tour; this provided assurance that the tour would take place. Her presentation was clear, comprehensive, and interesting. She highlighted the specialness of Aix-en-Provence.

Caroline is an exceptional tour guide and a truly wonderful person. She is incredibly knowledgeable, personable, and attentive, creating a warm and engaging experience from start to finish. She went out of her way to ensure I was comfortable and that the tour was both enjoyable and meaningful. I wholeheartedly recommend her — she made the day truly special.

I was so happy to experience such a wonderful walking tour in Aix ! Before the tour Caroline sent me mails and confirmed about the tour, so that I had no worry to meet her. She was a true professional and a wealth of knowledge about Aix and she is updating it every time. I was so impressed that she carried many photographs, pictures, maps and catalogs in case that we could not touch them in person. Thanks to her, I really come to love Aix !!!! Unfortunately my visit was a little bit early to experience the Paul Cezanne world-wide Exhibition,but after the tour she shared her photos and impressions with me. I've never met such a friendly guide before !!!! If you are visiting Aix for the first time, you should definitely not miss this tour

Caroline was amazing! She was very kind, engaging, prepared, and thoughtful in her tour. We greatly enjoyed our tour with her and would highly recommend.

Caroline was a wealth of knowledge. She enjoyed sharing her town and history with us. She was very enthusiastic. She had pictures and maps of what she was showing us from the past and how it has changed. She was extremely helpful in getting us to our restaurant reservation. She made a phone call for us … since there were 2 restaurants with the same name. We had asked our Viking Cruise Representative to make the reservation for us, but he never gave us the address.
