A Week in Provence – October 2017
“”As we contemplated our first visit to Provence to identify a village that we might return to for an extended stay, we wanted to slow travel through several small villages with nearby vineyards.
Prior to our trip, Emily created a customized itinerary to best meet our interests and needs. To start our week together, Emily met us at the train station and then proceeded to comfortably drive us through the 2-lane backroads of Provence helping us to discover the magical villages of Provence, the…”

“”What wonderful memories were made with four high school friends in Provence, thanks to our guide extraordinaire, Emily!
She planned and executed every detail, taking into consideration our personal requests, with flexibility that is impossible with
a large tour group. Our last night, while we were touring the Calanques in Cassis, Emily even prepared an alfresco poolside dinner for us. Many thanks and high recommendations to Emily, OUR Private Provence!
Emily, you allowed us to have e…”
High Provence Lavender Tour – July 2022
“”Finally third time was a charm! I found Emily while looking for trips to Provence to see the beautiful fields of lavender. I sent my deposit for 2020 and Covid happened so transferred it to 2021 and things were still crazy but finally 2022. There were 5 of us in our group, my daughter decided to join me and then my grand daughter joined in, and finally the lovely Carroll’s Jill and Greg. We had so much fun, so much wine and so many laughs. We showed the French how to party before midnight the…”
March 2015, Energize Provence Retreat
“”What an amazing trip! I booked a space on a small group tour with Emily and Your Private Provence at the last minute and wasn’t sure what to expect. It turned out to be the trip of a lifetime.
Emily created an outstanding itinerary, with just the right combination of interesting activities balanced with time for relaxation. The accommodations were quite unique and very comfortable. Your Private Provence allowed me to experience the region in a way I would never have been able to arrange on…”
Lavender & Heritage Sites Tour 2023
“I just can’t say enough about the Lavender & Cultural Tour with Emily. Emily has an in-depth knowledge of Provence, and it shows. From the accommodations to the daily excursions, everything was top-notch and well-planned. The tour was limited to 7 guests; having a small group allowed us to get to know each other and develop friendships. She checked upfront with each of us to obtain any dietary requirements or restrictions, and she made sure that a variety of menu choices was available t…”
Poppy Madness Tour 2024
“What a treasure it was to partake in Emily’s Spring Poppy Tour. Out of the 7 of us traveling together, 5 were painters and two were not however there was something for everyone. Emily took our interests and custom designed the itinerary to meet our needs. Besides painting in breathtaking settings, some of the highlights were meeting the lovely local people and enjoying immersive experiences such as cooking in local homes, learning about wines, and olive trees , even creating our own olive oil…”
October small group tour 2024
“Emily, your planning from where, when and why to our overnight accommodations could not have been more perfect! The Provence region is a must see for anyone who is interested in history, breathless scenic views and amazing food and wine all of which you delivered to us on a silver platter. You were an exquisite host. I wish you many more successful years hosting future visitors to your part of France.

May 2018 4-day private tour
“”After an amazing experience as a solo traveler on Your Private Provence’s Group Lavender Tour, ten months later I booked a private tour for my husband and me to see the poppies. Emily is warm, knowledgeable and flexible. We always felt safe and comfortable. Her recommendations for accommodations and restaurants were perfect. The itinerary on this second trip was completely different than the first trip…markets, hikes, wineries, picnics in fields of wildflowers, everything we asked for and…”
April Artist Tour 2022
“”Emily worked with me to create a personalized one-week itinerary that went beyond our expectations. She handled all aspects of our trip with a professional , low-key manner. The hotels were outstanding and dining was authentic. The luxury vehicle was very comfortable to travel in as well. Knowing we were a group of artist, she allowed time to see artistic points of interest. We plan on returning and will work with Emily again.”
