May 2017 3-Day Tour in Provence
“Emily was our favorite guide during our 2 weeks in France. She was so personable, taking us to favorite places and making Provence come alive. We loved our vineyard picnic, our tour in Arles, wine tastings, lunch at La Madison de la Truffe, and visits to local villages and markets.
Wonderful memories for my daughter and I thanks to her special care!”

May 2017 Week-long Tour in Provence
“Emily led me on a week long tour of the Luberon, her home, in Provence. Based upon my interests and ideas and her local knowledge, Emily created the itinerary for our week. Each day was crafted as a logical driving loop to explore a portion of this magical place. Emily’s expertise allowed me to experience what I was seeing as a ‘temporary local’. I would never have gained such an in-depth understanding as a tourist on my own. And I would never have seen as much each day if not for her expert driving!
The language was no problem as she is originally from the west coast of the USA. Emily delivers the full package: logical itinerary, scenic countryside, friendly interactions with local people, discovery around every corner, and fun! Bon Voyage!”

September 2016 Day Tour in the Luberon
“For my first time in Provence I decided to hire a guide. It’s not something I normally do but I didn’t want to be bothered with driving and trying to find my way on my own. I didn’t want to waste precious time because I had so little there.
We had several conversations via email in advance of my visit about what my interests are and what I wanted to get out of my time with her. Emily showed me some wonderful places for photos and a little off the beaten path Abbey that was a lovely way to end the day. That was after she wore my butt out hiking to the top of the hill in Lacoste where the ruins of the chateau of the Marquis du Sade watch over the village below.
Our day was partly planned and partly improvised which was perfect for me. I think next time I’d like to tag along on one of her lavender tours for a fun, fresh and energetic view of Provence. Emily was the perfect guide.”
