Guide #26483
Bonjour ! Welcome to France. My name is Elisabeth. I am a French teacher and an official licensed guide, mother of twins that have been guiding with passion in English and Spanish for more than 15 years in France. You want to discover the joy offered by Provence's lifestyle ? Follow me. All my tours are in a safe and secure environment as I work with a private driver that focusses on the road while I am totally at your disposal to give you explanations and answer your questions. I was born in the Basque Country in the border between France and Spain. With a French mother and a Spanish father, I grew up with two cultures which explains why I have always been extremely interested in cultural differences. I graduated in foreign languages (Spanish and English) and was delighted to spend some time in Santa Barbara to teach French to American students. I then specialized in communication and media and worked in this field for many years. My passion for travelling and meeting new international people was so strong that I decided in my 30's to open a bed and breakfast in Paris and to go back to university to become a licensed tour guide in order to share with travelers from all over the world my passion for France and the "French art de vivre". As a professional guide, I always make sure my tours adapt to the style of the people I guide. I want you to live a unique experience by sharing with you my secret and favourite places in Provence. Provence has so much to offer: tasty food, wonderful monuments, incredible history, ancestral traditions and amazing creative people. . Forget about rushing, together we will enjoy the moment and make sure the tour that you're taking turns into an incredible and magical adventure. Do not hesitate to contact me if there is something special you want to discover in Provence and that is not described on my tours. I can always propose you a customized tour that responds to your special request and the size of your group. Get ready to enjoy ! Professional licensed French official tour guide (English and Spanish) issued by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism : Number 19 13 007 P Master degree in Media & Communication Bachelor in Foreign Languages (Spanish & English) I am not a driver but I can arrange for you a comfortable car with a private driver.

Elisabeth was prompt, professional, warm, and imdormative. We appreciated her well organized tour and informative narrative. She engaged us in many different aspects of Aix culture and history. All the while being energetic and engaging.

Elisabeth was knowledgeable, enthusiastic, a bit theatrical, and curious about us. Her love of this city and its history is plainly sincere. We couldn't have had a better three-hour introduction to Marseille (and the Greeks who founded it, and the Mob that ran it, and the city leaders who advised the Nazis on which neighborhoods to bomb). We may have been a little hungry...

I see that you enjoyed my tour and all the anecdotes I shared with you to better understand this fascinating city. I hope you had a nice meal after the tour and that you are getting back to your country full of knowledge and interest for all you have seen during your trip. Take care
Kim L.May 2026Elizabeth is the greatest tour guide!! She makes the tours SO fun. She personalized this one a bit for us as we had a toddler and wanted both food and history. She did it beautifully. We ADORED her fun food quiz - - - laughed so hard. She does an excellent job of orienting you to the food of the region and giving you insights into why food is so central to the French...

Elizabeth is a gem of a guide. We were so sad to say goodbye to her after this - our third tour with her during our 2 week stay in Provence. She made every tour special and fun. Cassis is a small town - a beautiful town and Elizabeth gave us a wonderful entry into its nooks and crannies as well as its history. She is the best. And this tour was worth booking.

Very lucky to be your guide during this three days. Wonderful 3 generations family. I am sure there is a word that you will not forget : Mistral :-) And now can you believe it we have a heat wave and all the green urban jungles that I showed you in Cassis bring a little of freshness that is so enjoyable ! The best to all of you and happy that you could discover the...
