Gordana was an excellent tour guide. She had so much information to share and you can tell that she truly enjoys what she does. Since everything we saw was new to us, it was all memorable. The villages of the Luberon were beautiful and the Pont du Gard is an amazing structure. Even though it was a long day, it was not too much for a pair of 75 year olds. This tour is highly recommended.
Amazing!

The guide/driver, Gordana, was wonderful. She was upbeat and very knowledgeable and clear with loads of information. The sights were amazing!
The trip involved quite a bit of walking which was not indicated in the information. It would be good to include a note saying there would be moderate walking to see all the sights.
Highly recommended

Our guide Gordana (sp?) was cheerful, informative and had a nice sense of humor. It is a very ambitious itinerary and a long day but just what we were looking for, to maximize our limited time in the region. The small size of the group (8 total, not previously acquainted) was perfect. Highly recommend!

Natalie was a wonderful guide
Even though it was raining it was a pleasant experience
We always wanted to see the bridges and quaint villages
Very scenic and pleasant. Gorda a was knowledgeable.

Towns of Gordes, Rosilleau and St Remy de Provence were picturesque and nice to wander through. I wasn’t as impressed by the town of Fontaine de Vacluse, although the walk along the waterway was nice.
Great
Robert_B, May 2024
All stops were great! Anne was very efficient and knowledgeable. Overall she was great but talked too fast, and hard to always understand.
A spectacular way to see Provence

Natalie was an amazing guide. She gave us so much insight into each area and it’s history. It was one of the best experiences we have ever had!
Great experience for me!

A memorable experience

Natalie, our guide, was exceptional. She had control of the schedule perfectly and arranged for us to see the most of the six sites we visited; truly get out of her way to make sure that we have seen the best. The itinerary from Time 4 Provence was also well designed.
Great trip
Claire_H, May 2024
This was a superb tour, covering a lot of ground (and villages) in just one day. Each of the villages are unique and beautiful, topped off by a visit to the architectural wonder of the Pont du Gard.
It did feel, however, that our guide showed some frustration openly (with the frankly very well behaved group) and at times was quite short with the group, leading us to all be on tenterhooks!!
Excellent Day in Provence
Edgar_N, May 2024
We very much enjoyed our day tour of Provence with our excellen guide/driver, Anna. Although the day was cool and wet, we still saw many wonderful sights. The river springing from the mountain, the villages of Gordes and Rousillon and, of course, the Pont du Gard were particular highlights. We also learned a lot about Provence along the way, thanks to Anna. All the stops made for a long day, but since we had a limited amount of time in Avignon, it was well worth it.
All day all Provence

Anne was awesome! She was personable and very informative of the region. We got so much value-we couldn’t have possibly seen so much on our own. I highly recommend especially if you are only visiting for a few days and want to see as much as you can.
Great
Kathryn_R, May 2024
Gardonna was a fabulous tour guide. Very knowledgeable and FUN!! Would recommend this tour as it took in everything we wanted to see.
Would have liked a little more time to shop …? But that’s just me !!😎
Our guide was wonderful!

Gordanna was an amazing tour guide! So upbeat and personable! She made the trip so much fun! The sites were outstanding and we had plenty of time to enjoy each stop.
learned a lot
Monet_E, Apr 2024
the tour was very informative…Donnaka (?) knew all the history. it was a nice small group as promised. the only disappointment was that we booked for a french tour intentionally since it was part of our immersion studying the language and they stuck us with an english group with no advance notice or option to cancel or refund.
Two thumbs up!!!

My friend and I had a wonderful time with Natalie, the guide, who was so knowledgeable on every subject. Especially we loved the historic aqueduct “Pont du Gard” the most. We were just amazed by it and its surroundings. We enjoyed the tour so much!!!
Gordona is the Best
Regina_S, Apr 2024
With Gordona on the trip was the best I ever did! I hope when I come back to be on the tour with her, She knows a lot about history and culture.
Memorable Provence highlights full day tour
dana_p, Apr 2024
We had a fun time in Provence full day tour with guide Gordana . She offered insightful historical, cultural background info on tour locations Gordes, Rousillon, St
Remy where artist Vincent van Goh lived for a year, Les Baux and incredible Roman aqueduct Pont du Gard. The tour stops gave us enough time to walk around and our lunch break at Rousillon was fun with lavender flavor ice cream and viewing the red cliffs. Gordana’s enthusiasm for the region and clearly explaining the history made this tour memorable.
Fabulous Tour!
Leanne_M, Apr 2024
This was a fabulous tour - I was so glad I booked it. Nathalie the tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable, and I got to see and learn things that I never would have discovered otherwise.
A great sample of the cities in Provence
Li_K, Apr 2024
We are a family of three (me, my husband and our 13 year old son) from California. Natalie was our driver and our guide. Not sure if she was the owner or not, but she sure guided us like she owned the business because she was very enthusiastic with making sure we had a wonderful time. She is knowledgeable of the area and was happy to answer all of our random questions. The tempo of the tour was fast because there was a lot of grounds to cover. We had a wonderful time.
