Highlights

Hello and welcome! My name is Tetyana and it is with joy that I invite you to live a day out of time in the heart of Provence. An avid traveller, I travelled to more than 40 countries before putting my bags down in this beautiful region. This private tour is not just a simple excursion: it is a small trip back in time, an immersion in the wild beauty and fascinating history of the Verdon. Throughout the day, you will be accompanied by driver Davis and myself. Along the majestic Gorges du Verdon, formed several million years ago. Did you know that these walls still contain marine fossils? And what about Moustiers-Sainte-Marie, famous for its earthenware... Would you like to visit a cave where traces of hermits have been found here since the 5th century AD? I will tell you local legends, make you taste local products and if you like authenticity and discoveries - this tour is for you!

About Aix-en-Provence

Aix-en-Provence is an elegant university town in Provence, with plane-shaded boulevards, fountains, markets and the hills Cézanne painted.

Aix-en-Provence was founded by the Romans in 122 BC beside hot springs and later became the capital of Provence. The Cours Mirabeau, a broad avenue shaded by plane trees, divides the old town from the newer quarter, with cafés on one side and old mansions on the other, and fountains run in the small squares behind. Thermal springs still feed its baths.

Top-ranked sights in Aix-en-Provence: Cours Mirabeau, Lake of Sainte-Croix (Lac de Sainte-Croix), Valensole Plateau (Plateau De Valensole).
