I am a French licensed guide and a wine guide. Food, wine and history are my passions. I have worked for 3 big wineries in Chateauneuf-du-Pape from 2012 until 2015 in exports departments, and this is how I was swept into the world of wine tasting and guiding. My tours include genuine contact with the region, its history, and tasting in small family run wineries. Connecting or reconnecting to the provençal way of living, culture and terroir is the keystone of all my tours. I was born in Provence in the black truffle and Grignan-les-Adhémar region, and travelled in some European countries during childhood and teenage. Don't hesitate to have a look at my tours or contact me for any excursions you might fancy in Provence. -French registered guide - card number GC1784002 -Post Graduate Diploma in English (teach English and French), Ph.D. level -WSET Wines and Spirits level 2 passed with distinction 96% -French Wine Scholar 85% -2nd-year diploma in tourism -International business degree I do not have any restrictions in regard to my guiding, I can offer a full range of experiences

Medieval and Roman history city tour - private transportation - starting from Avignon
Overview of your Avignon tour
I studied in Avignon for 4 years, love the city and still live close to it. We'll walk to the most picturesque and typical narrow streets and views in Avignon only known by the locals. There shall be a lot of walking as most old historical streets are narrow, made of cobblestone and only accessible to pedestrians. Here most of the monuments date from the Middle-ages and were built during the reign of the different popes that lived in the Palais. You'll be going inside the Palace. Big parts of the inner city have kept their medieval spirit so don't forget your camera! I've been living in Orange for 14 years and enjoy it everyday. This beautiful Roman city will hide no secret to you! This visit will mainly concern the heavy historical past of Orange from the Roman times till the Princes. Pont du Gard is the highest Roman aquaduct that is still standing and used to provide the city of Nîmes with water. Absolutely breathtaking sightseeing.
