Best season

All year round. Each season shows the region differently - we adapt the route to the light and the weather.

Fitness level

Easy to moderate, adapted to you. Village streets are cobbled and sloping; tell us if that is a problem.

Families

Welcome. Child seats provided free of charge on request.

If it rains

The day shifts indoors - workshops, museums, tastings and a longer lunch - without losing its character.

Good to know

Questions guests ask before booking

Where do we start, and at what time?

We pick you up at your hotel, villa or the cruise terminal. Departure is usually between 8:30 and 9:30 - earlier to beat the crowds, later if you are on holiday and it is holiday time.

How is lunch handled?

We book the table, you choose the register: a gastronomic restaurant, a Provençal bistro, or a farm table. Lunch is not included in the tour price so that you keep the choice. Dietary requirements are never a problem - tell us in advance.

What language will the tour be in?

English or French by default. Spanish, Arabic and Berber are also possible - Fouad speaks all five.

Can we combine this with another tour over two days?

Often the best plan. The second day is quoted at a reduced rate.

What happens if the weather turns?

The day shifts without losing its character. We only cancel for genuinely unsafe mountain or sea conditions, and then we reschedule or refund.

How and when do we pay?

You receive a written proposal with a firm price for your group. No deposit is required to hold a date more than a week out. Payment on the day, by card or in cash.

Reviews

What guests said about this day

Fouad noticed the cruise crowds that day and took our small group off the beaten path - hillside towns, new places, and a delicious lunch overlooking the hills.Brian Keeley, USA
Fouad took us to beautiful out-of-the-way vineyards, and lunch afterwards in Saint-Tropez. He went above and beyond, helping us ship wine back home.Marcus Loy
Great personality, knew all the shortcuts, and really just a cool guy. One of my favorite guides!Thomas Beck, USA
