Hello and welcome to my page! If you are here, it means that you are searching for a nice day trip in Provence. I hope you will find something inspiring for you. Let me introduce myself first, I’m Tom and I have been living in the Aix-en-Provence and Marseille regions for the last 20 years. Since I discovered the south of France, I knew it was “my place”: the sun, the sea, beautiful beaches, picturesque countryside, surprising towns full of contrasts, authentic villages..and of course a very good Mediterranean cuisine, full of colours, good wine, endless aperitifs..a mix of cultures. A certain lightness and joy of living. I started my career in the luxury hospitality sector and after few years I changed from being Sales Director to the Tourism Manager of the local vineyard where I realized that the most important aspects I like in my job are sharing my knowledge about the region and simply having good moments with people. I decided to quit my full-time job and create my own company, of course in accordance with my interests and values. I love simplicity, nature, hiking and being in beautiful authentic sites where I can unwind and connect to myself and to the place I’m visiting. I will be offering the trips I’m used to propose to my family and friends as well! Showing you the authentic Provence but also letting you discover it by yourself. More than a guide, I rather consider myself as the “experiences’ creator”. My goal is to accompany you to live your day more like a local than a tourist. Aside from few unmissable excursions, I want to show you the real Provence, sometimes out of the beaten path: seeing local producers who work with passion and love for their land and their animals, plus the magnificent landscapes as close as possible from our meeting point, because the less time you spend in the car, the more you will feel the surrounding nature and the atmosphere of this inspiring region. People here say “Not too fast in the morning, slowly in the afternoon” and I think indeed that at least during holidays, it is important to slow down. I invite you to experience Provence with me! Have a look into my tours, I have prepared a few options for you! But if you don’t find the one you are looking for, just let me know! It will be a pleasure for me to customize a day for you according to your expectations. See you soon, Tom

Overview of your Aix En Provence tour

When I host my family or friends, we always go to Gorges du Verdon. I just adore this region, so peaceful and inspiring... I'd love to share the spots that only locals know with you. It'd be a pity to not explore this place and just take pictures from the vantage points... I’m inviting you to spend a really sensational day. There's no better way to visit the Gorges du Verdon than going to the heart of its canyon! On this tour, you'll have a picnic with local specialities and wines navigating in the middle of the nature on your private electric boat. An unforgettable experience. I'll show you the lavenders fields off the beaten path, just to unwind and have an authentic experience, away from big buses and crowded fields in Valensole. You'll also be amazed by the Sainte-Croix lake, which is actually the biggest in Gorges du Verdon, and the hilltop village Sainte-Croix-du-Verdon. The beauty of Gorges du Verdon is indescribable. If you really want to explore this place, don’t hesitate to book this trip!
