Anne was our guide, and this was a fantastic day! Anne provided us with so much history of Provence. She took us to the actual places that inspired many of Van Gogh's paintings. This tour exceeded all expectations we had. We would recommend this to all who visit the region.

Emile was amazing. He had all the facts because they were his story, his family history, back to his grandfather. I never had such a personal tour. I only wish I could find his equivalent in every tour I take going forward. As we travelled from important site to important site he used the travel time to prep us in depth for what was next so that when we arrived we were prepared, We were ready to grasp the history, the human story of this slice of the past as if we had witnessed it ourselves! I shall never be able to thank Emile enough. Thank you trip advisor.

Walking in Van Gogh’s footsteps was awe inspiring. Driving in Provence was a trip through history, geography & beauty. Arles, Baux & St. Remy were a wonder. Gordanna, our Guide, was a humorous & informative delight. This was an experience we’ll treasure all our life.
