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…”
