Lucie, our tour guide was very nice and attentive. The only thing that disappointed me that we did not visit Gordes. (Only the viewpoint for some pictures) I booked this tour because of Gordes so finally it left me a bit disappointed. According to the tour description visiting the village is also included. When we got there, it was said that Gordes is not so nice and too expensive, so we skip the village. Anyway, overall it was a nice day! I loved Roussilon and Lourmarin. Maybe next time in Provence I will have a chance to visit Gordes too.

Get Your Guide is so exceptional and we will use for every trip moving forward! We were met by our lovely guide Nelly on time and in an easy meeting spot. They used really nice 8 passenger air conditioned vans. We saw so many gorgeous villages, sites, lavender fields and more! Nelly stopped at great picture points and we did not feel like we missed a thing. This is a wonderful way to see the French countryside, a castle, gorgeous sites!
