I will introduce you to local life, the authentic Provençal art of living through History, anecdotes and personal tips. It will be a genuine insider's experience. About me My name is Caroline, I am a passionate Local Guide. I grew up in this region, studied at Aix University. I love working in the tourism trade as it enables me to meet new people, share my passion for my city and create meaningful moments with visitors from all around the world.

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).
