    Awesome day with our singing tour guide Valerio! He taught us a lot about the region’s history and kept us entertained throughout the day. These small group tours are the best!

    The trip was filled with spectacular views of the Gorges du Verdon and the Haute Provence. Several picturesque villages along the way. I knew going in December is not the best time of year for a lavender experience, but that was not my focus. Roman was an excellent guide. Personably, professional and courteous.

    This might have been a great trip, however when booking the tour, we completed the questionnaire asking to be picked up at our hotel. AFTER the cancelation time had expired, we were asked to take a 45 min taxi ride or train ride to the pick-up destination. When i explained this was not possible because of ambulation issues with an elderly companion, i was told that it was too late to cancel. I have the text message chains and confirmation stating pick up at my hotel, however VIATOR continues to deny reimbursement of this trip. SHAME SHAME. Sadly, will not use this company again. They really should have done the right thing.
