Wonderful tour of a lovely city

judyh786, Nov 2025

The tour was fabulous. Fabienne, the guide, was knowledgeable and entertaining. The group was small and we got along very well. We learned a great deal about the city and its history, as well as seeing the many beautiful sites. The food stops were interesting - sampled some of the local candy specialties, as well as going to a bakery and getting savory and sweet treats and rose [wine]. A great experience and highly recommended.

Great start to our Aix en Provence trip!

My husband and I truly loved this fantastic tour given by Fabienne. We learned so much from her and she had a beautiful way of blending the historical information with fun places to stop for a bite of the local specialties along the way! She also helped us with our questions on taxis and trains, as we needed easier routes than we were taking. She was so kind and helpful! I highly recommend Fabienne and her tour and I think she would be great doing cooking classes as well! Lisa and Rino Caruccio

A wonderful tour! Do it!

AMAZING! Fabienne is very knowledgable, kind, attentive, just the best. We enjoyed a leisurely paced tour, full of yummy treats and learnt a lot about Aix. We also sat down to enjoy wine and cheese, and it all felt like hanging out with a friend. Highly recommend!

This tour was a wonderful way to start our first-time visit to Aix en Provence. Fabienne was wonderful, knowledgeable, and very personable. The tour was structured, but felt very relaxed. The places we visited had fascinating history. The highlight was certainly the treats and food that we got to taste. Truly a fun way to start the day!
