5.00Our family (mum, dad & 2 teenagers) spent half a day exploring local villages close to Avignon. Our host Emily was lovely and very knowledgeable about the local area. She showed us some very special spots where we could admire not only the town history but the natural wonders they had been built upon. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a unique experience with a passionate guide.
Merveilleux Voyage ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

5.00What a fabulous day we spent with Emily our guide. Just my husband and I so it was like a private tour, in a very comfortable 8 person van. Emily was so knowledgeable and gave us personal insights into her love of Provence and the Luberon perched villages. Whilst the weather gods gave us a cloudy day, it did not detract from an amazing countryside visit. Truly beautiful. Merci beaucoup Emily. Nous avons tout amie🥳

5.00Gordana provided both a lot of information with equal measures of humor and expertise. The tour requires a fair bit of driving time but Gordana kept a running commentary that kept things interesting and the time passed quickly. The tour stops were interesting and seemed the right length. Gordana was a delight and made the tour very informative and educational.
Gorgeous Provence with gordana

5.00We were just yesterday on excursion with gordana visiting the most beautiful villages of Provence on a half-day tour! What about we had a great time:) She was a very attentive and loving guide explained very well along the way the various habits and stories of her magnificent land! The minivan accommodates 8 people and we were very comfortable! The villages of Provence as well as the route was beautiful and very piecemeal! Even the daughter of gordana adorable and always smiling at the end of the hike even gave us a ride to a nearby town! I absolutely recommend booking with them because they are a new business reality but they put a lot of passion and love into what they do! A hug from Sicily
It was perfect!

We had a great time and loved the villages she took us to and the wonderful photo opportunities! She is truly her mother’s daughter! We laughed, shared and had so much fun! We loved her so much we booked a wine tour for the next day!

5.00Two, day tours within Provence were exceptional with Gordana. Friendly, professional, knowledgeable of history as well as local facts made our time together very interesting and fun. Also did a day tour with Eric who also made the day special. Thank you Gordana!!
Happy we opted for this tour rather than trying to do it ourselves.

5.00We enjoyed the half day trip and learned so much. The pace was perfect, and scenery was stunning. The host was so friendly and lovely, staying cool as a cucumber navigating the tiny roads and villages. It was much less stressful to do this tour rather than trying to drive ourselves. And it’s always interesting to meet the other travelers!
Best tour guide in Avignon, Provence!

5.00One of the best, well run and informative tours I have done. Gordana has a great sense of humour and a vast knowledge of the history of the area. The tour is well planned with sufficient stops for sightseeing and photo opportunities. I highly recommend Gordana's tour for a fun day out, her local knowledge of the best spots to visit is invaluable.

5.00My wife and I went on a half-day trip with the lovely Gordana around some of the beautiful villages near Avignon in Provence. During the tour we learned a lot about the area, its history, climate, agriculture and people. We would thoroughly recommend anyone who wants to know more about this part of France to book a place on one of Gordana's tours.
