A wonderful day in the fishing village of Cassis that included a boat ride to the calanques, wine and food tasting, a stop at a long-established perfume atelier, and a fabulous lunch. Our guide Camille was friendly and informative, and definitely key to a successful day.

Our guide, Camille, was fantastic! The day was well planned from start to finish. Camille made everyone in our small group feel welcome and she was eager to get to know everybody during the drive into Cassis. Once there, she introduced the charming sea-side village and efficiently got us onto one of the first boats leaving for the day to see the idyllic coves along the coastline. Our boat captain did not speak English, but Camille translated and offered her own information about Cassis, its fishing industry, and France in general. We were extremely lucky with the weather — sunny and only slightly cool — and Camille said she has never been on the boat with bad weather. We hope that streak continues because this was a highlight of the day! Once back on land, we went into the narrow lanes of the town and sampled some delicious praline and stopped in a perfumery that has been operating in Cassis for over a century. Next, we were sent off on our own for some lunch. Camille suggested two restaurants, both of which had delicious-looking offerings, but the town also boasts smaller cafes and patisseries. When we all came back together, it was time to view Cassis from above. Camille took us to two incredible cliff-top outlooks to explore and take photos. Then we drove to the winery, which Camille explained has been family owned for four generations. The tasting and tour were short and sweet and a perfect end to our trip. We are so grateful to Camille for sharing her knowledge on this part of France and for generally being a kind and funny guide throughout the day.

Caroline was absolutely amazing. We had the best time and she was so friendly and knowledgeable. She made restaurant recommendations and took us on a hike and all over Cassis and had backup plans for weather etc. I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone who wants a day trip out of Aix.
