Trip well worth booking
This trip was a wonderful way to see the area. Our tour guide, Silvio, was very knowledgeable and also a great driver through the curvy roads. All of the villages were beautiful.

Provence
Our guide was magnificent! Knowledgeable, pleasant and excellent English.

Lovely Luberon towns
A lovely trip to see many of the hill towns of the Luberon. Our guide, Lelana, was delightful! We enjoyed her knowledge and background and the small group of us (7) was ideal. We got to see at least 5 towns and each was lovelier than the other in their own way. Highly recommend doing this tour.
B
Beautiful Luberon
Our trip was wonderful; our guide Alessandro showed us many things, all very interesting, and he was also very nice.
E
Terrific!
Paul was terrific, very informative, the tour was well planned, it was HOT, so try to avoid June, July and September. He gave us enough time to walk around and was pretty funny.
K
Amazing day trip with so much to see
Towns were amazing!! Itinerary was packed but got so much beauty in. Always wanted more time at each town but there was never enough time. our guide was nice but lacked sharing details and history.
F
A great introduction to several villages each with a different character without the stress of driving
An excellent way to visit several villages in the Luberon without having to drive - on the day we went on the tour we went to Fontaine de Vaclause, Gordes (it was market day) Roussillon and Lourmarin. The guide gave us lots of information as we travelled and some recommendations of what to see when we arrived in each place. We had at least an hour in each place - and the guide went out of her way to stop and show us some extra things on route including one of the first fields of Lavendin to bloom. Her enthusiasm and love the region really came across and we felt safe as she navigated the tricky roads and busy village centres.
S
NOT as advertised!
This tour was advertised as having 8 participants maximum, but our tour had 14! Squeezed into a very uncomfortable minivan with no air conditioning on a 90 degree day. The worst travel experience ever.
Operator response
Dear Susan, all vehicles are FULLY AIR CONDITIONED. This day was particularly hot so when we stop the van needs time to cool again, in France is forbidden to leave engine on while van is parked. Since many years this tour is advertised to have maximum 16 people. You bought the tour at the Tourist Office, and by mistake they told you maximum 8 people, so we understand your frustration. Tourist Office is responsible for the mistake, we clearly explained you the issue. It is written very clearly in all contracts, about the maximum being 16 people. We cannot be responsible for tickets sold incorrectly by partners. It is your right to complain with the person that gave you incorrect information and the partner that sold you the ticket, and we are by your side if you need us. Nobody else complained about it neither in your tour, nor in many years this tour is running. The only action we can take is to contact the Tourist Office. All the best, Silvio (bonjour provence)
