Day Trips from Provence

Did the tour with my partner. Loved the villages and the wine tasting (sooo good, I bought a bottle I prob didn't need, lol). Our guide was super knowledgeable but sometimes it felt like info overload. Also, you can’t take pics inside some of the churches, fyi. Wear comfy shoes, lots of cobblestones.

Our guide, Elise, was so fun and made sure everyone was comfy. My wife and I loved the wine tasting—learned a lot, and the pours were generous. The van was clean, group size was just right. Weather was a bit windy but didn’t spoil anything. Would recommend for couples.

Went solo and didn’t feel awkward at all, which was a relief. Met another solo traveler and we geeked out over the reds—sooo smooth. Our guide answered, like, every random question I threw at him about terroir and oak barrels. The lookout point over Cassis was the highlight for me. Only thing: wish they sold more snacks at the wineries, I got a bit peckish after all that sipping.

Fun day with friends! The drive out was a bit long, but the scenery is amazing—rolling vineyards and then the coast. Our guide was funny and even sang us a song (not kidding). The first winery was my fave, super rustic and the staff poured generous tastings. Cassis was PACKED but so pretty, and we managed to snag a spot for lunch at a tiny bistro. Wish there was a bit more time to look around the town. Still, really cool experience.

Onze volledige dagtour door de lavendelvelden was geweldig. Onze gids Paolo was geweldig. Omdat we vanuit Marseille vertrokken, hadden we wat tijd voordat we de lavendelvelden bereikten. Paolo was een schat aan kennis en informatie over de hele regio en de geschiedenis ervan, en ook zeer goed geïnformeerd over alles wat met lavendel te maken had. Toen we bij de lavendelvelden aankwamen, hielp hij iedereen met foto's en beantwoordde al onze vragen. Hij was zeer professioneel en een uitstekende chauffeur. We hadden geen betere tour kunnen krijgen!
