    We loved this tour and highly recommend! Nathalie was an awesome guide - she got us to every sight and avoided the crowds. Walking the steps of Van Gogh in Provence is a must! Choose the tour for an awesome day.

    The tour was a small tour in a mini van which seated up to 8 people. Our guide , Silvia was excellent. We were able to see
    at Les Baux de Provence the village as well as the exhibition, Carrieres de Lumieres. I requested to see if we could stop by an
    olive oil producer and she was able to arrange this. We were able to have enough time in Arles to have lunch. Since the guide was
    getting her art history degree this was excellent and she was able to explain more history in the villages that we toured.
    The only minor disappointment was St Remy: we had time to see the hospital where Van Gogh stayed, but not able to see the town
    of St. Remy. I would recommend this tour and this tour guide she was fantastic.

    This was a 5 star trip!! Our guide was Sylvia and she did an amazing job!!!! On this tour we followed the path of Vincent Van Gogh. We went to the Asylum where he stayed for 1 year in Saint Remy, the cafe that he painted in Arles, and the hospital he stayed at in Arles. We also saw many Roman ruins in Arles and Saint Remy.We also went to Les-Baux-de-Provence and visited the Carrieres de Lumieres. This is an absolute must!!! It was an incredible light show of 15th century art work projected on the walls, ceilings and floors of an old quarry with classical musical playing. One of my favorite things that I did on this trip. We then toured the fortified castle in Les Baux. This trip was well worth the money!!!!!
