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

Typical wine tours can be sometimes really boring and very touristy..I rather propose you to spend a peaceful day in the authentic countryside, trying wines and the best food! On this tour, we'll visit a local winery where I'll explain you the process of wine production, and you'll get to try estate wines and learn more about the art of wine tasting! I worked in a vineyard for 2 years and it'd be a pleasure to share what I know and what I learned! Through our day together, you'll get to take beautiful panoramic pictures from vantage points, explore local boutiques, plus try Provencal aperitifs and delicious ice-creams! In addition to this, we'll explore the basilica where Mary Magdalene's skull is preserved. So if you want to escape crowded places and unwind experiencing the authentic and peaceful Provence, this tour is certainly for you!
-After picking you up, we'll drive through Sainte Victoire massif, where we'll make a few stops to admire the beautiful landscapes of vine valleys and hills. -Next, we'll visit a vineyard and step into its cellar, where you'll enjoy wine tasting and a lovely walk through the vine fields. -After that, we'll move to a little hilltop village where in the shade of plane trees, we'll play pétanque having some local appetizers, just like locals do! But if you prefer another winery visit instead, it's possible! -Then you will have some free time for your lunch at a typical provencal restaurant in the village, or in the middle of nature if you prefer! Quality, authencity and beautiful location guarenteed! -We will continue to Saint-Maximin-la-Sainte-Baume with its amazing basilica surrounded by local boutiques. -At last, we'll head back to your hôtel for the end of our tour.
