Bienvenue en Provence ! My name is Olivier and I am based in La Ciotat, a charming beach resort close to the fishermen village of Cassis, nearby Marseille, Toulon and Aix en Provence. I started my adventure in the tourism industry as a freelance, conducting guided sightseeing tours in Provence and winery tours in the area. To date I have been guiding since 2015, providing a high standard of service and a unique experience to all my customers. I am an enthusiastic person and I love Provence, where I have lived for many years. As I provide visits of Cassis, Marseille, and Aix en Provence, I always take time to do stop to scenic viewpoints for dramatic views and interesting historical facts. Natural park of Luberon and surroundings of Avignon and Rhône valley are some of my favorite areas in northern Provence where I like to share good times there. Feedback and reviews of my customers describe me as a humorous, flexible and courteous person as well as a safe driver! I am trilingual native French and fluent English and Italian. All my tours can be customized to meet your needs, so feel free to message me if you have any special request. - Professional driver license, according to the French regulation for people transportation for touristic purposes - Permanent free access to ship piers of the Marseille Cruise Port Enclosure - First-aid certificate PSC1 delivered by firefighters of Marseille district (2015) - Degrees in science (University of Paris) - I am not able to guide you inside of the museums or historical monuments. - I can only guide in English, Italian and French.

Overview of your Marseille tour

Let yourself be led for an amazing breakthrough in the Luberon if you want to see as many as possible of the choices, it's the place to go! Gordes is standing on the edge of the plateau of Vaucluse and is one of the "in" villages of Luberon. Notre-Dame de Senanque might be considered a must see in Provence in lavender season. The Cistercian abbey is near the spectacular hilltop village of Gordes in Vaucluse-en-Provence. Experience Roussillon situated in the heart of one of the biggest ochre deposits in the world and its magnificent red cliffs and ochre quarries. Discover The Julius bridge, a Roman bridge that crosses the Calavon between Apt and Cavaillon to offer a passage to the Domitia route linking Italy to Spain. Enjoy Lourmarin, a very animated village in the summer due to its numerous cafe terraces and shop! I can recommend in Roussillon a very good local restaurant !
