Personalized Travel with a Provençal Local

Create your ideal holiday in Provence. Travel is a personal story where you can put in elements that speak to you, inspire you, allow you to move as you like, or relax as you like. Provence has an amazing way of catering to all types of travelers – a destination people choose to visit again…and again.

Your tour might focus on the Côtes-du-Rhône wines, hiking trails with hidden treasures, tracing the steps of Van Gogh or walking the Roman road. French Cuisine might be a focus for your immersion experience. Should the paint brush be your friend, you may want to have a painting spot planned for each outing. The ways to curate your Provence vacation are endless and together we build the perfect honeymoon in Provence, week in Provence or few days in Provence for you.

“We had the trip of a lifetime with Emily! She was friendly, fun, very knowledgeable, bilingual and a very safe driver. She took us to some of the most picturesque places in Provence…. We did not want to rent a car because we didn’t know the roads and having her in the driver’s seat in her beautiful van made the journey stress-free. My favorite part of the tour was sitting in beautiful Cassis at a cafe, watching the sparkling blue sea and just chatting with her about France. She is a wonderful human and I cannot recommend her more highly! –Janice FitzGerald”

Truffle, Cuisine & Wine tour – 2024

"Truffle, Cuisine & Wine Tour - 2024 Yes, this is a food-focused week, which means excellent chevre, olive oil, truffles and plenty of good wine. But it's so much more. We checked out beautiful vistas, accompanied a farmer as he and his dog dug up some of the season's last truffles, visited a farmer's market, baked and cooked at the direction of talented chefs, and learned about Cezanne's testy relationship with his hometown of Aix. In between, we got to know Emily, who's knowledgeable ab…"

Lavender Lifestyle Tour

"To say our tour with Emily was perfect would be an understatement. The amount of thought and preparation Emily puts into her tours is astounding. Her easy going nature and good humor sets the tone for a group dynamic that is relaxed and fun.

Not to mention Emily's transportation and interpretation services alone made the tour worth it. We will definitely return! Cristi &…"

There was enough downtime that the days didn't feel rushed or overscheduled. The accommodations were lovely, the restaurants were top notch, and we felt safe the entire time.
