Hi everyone !! Here is some informations about myself you guys might like to know. . . I was born and raised in Toulouse (south west France). There I studied marketing as a young(er) man. I traveled quite a lot during my twenties (India, Australia, South East Asia, US, . . ), did many different jobs and went back to university during my thirties. Now I'm an independent licensed tour guide who loves to share his passion for Avignon and Provence. I am - of course - interested in so many different topics. But if I had to make choices I would say that History is a major one, Gastronomy (and more specifically Oenology) another one. Avignon being named the "City of the Popes" and "Capital of southern Rhône Valley wines", I guess I've picked the right place for living and working ! I think now it's time for us to get to know each other and share great moments. . Come join me on a walking tour and get yourself a real slice of Provence ! Cheers, Marc C. - License of national tour guide - Wine and Spirit Education Trust Level 2 I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

It's the perfect combination of a city walking tour and a gourmet tour which makes you have a good slice of Provence. This is the life I lead I'm about to share with you, where I live, what made me move to Avignon years ago and what made me stay actually!
