Great tour and great tour guide
Safari821118, Mar 2026
Thomas' food tour was a highlight of our trip to Provence. He took a small group to several wonderful food shops and market stalls that we would have never found on our own, and along the way told us about the history and culture of the region. Thomas is a gem. And go hungry because at each shop we got to sample the specialties.
Great way to discover best food in Aix

Thomas leads a wonderful tour to all the small and beautiful shops and markets you might well never see on your own. My daughter and I enjoyed the whole experience and the picnic by the fountain was a special highlight. Highly recommend!

Fantastic!

What a wonderful tour! Thomas is a delight and his knowledge of local foods is impressive. We made multiple stops at small shops and the markets, all purveyors of local foods. Plus 2 sit downs at a coffee shop and a waffle/crepes/ice cream shop. A particularly nice touch was the mini picnic at an ancient small water fountain. I highly recommend. Come hungry!

Thank you so much for this wonderful review! I’m truly happy you enjoyed this food tour in Aix-en-Provence. Sharing local foods, small artisan shops, and the lively markets of Provence with curious and enthusiastic visitors like you is exactly what I love most about my work. I’m glad the coffee stop, the waffle and crêpe tasting, and especially the little picnic by the historic fountain made the experience special for you. Thank you for coming hungry and for your kind recommendation. I hope to welcome you again for another gourmet discovery in Provence one day.
Good food and great knowledge

Thomas gave a wonderful tasting tour with lots of cultural and historical information to accompany. Many interesting points you won’t hear about in the guide books. He’s very friendly and I definitely recommend his tour.
