My wife and I spent a full day with Marlene and what a great day it turned out to be. We started with the chocolate-wine pairing, visited the Pont Du Gard, then a traditional cod+aioli lunch at Lolo's farm house. Lunch was followed by the olive oil tasting, then more of St Remy, before we stopped off at a farmer's... More

Marlene made our vist to Provence the highlight of our vacation in France. She was warm, friendly and made us feel like her personal guests. What an amazing professional! I highly recommend. More

We are first time visitors to France and the Provence Region. It seemed the best idea to have an English speaking guide inform us more of this area and even though we had a hire car, it was wonderful to relax with my husband and let someone else do the driving and all the while inform us as to where...
