My family only had a few hours to see Marseille and Cassis and we couldn't have made a better choice than Patrick at Voyages Provence. Patrick was professional, knowledgeable and attentive. Booking with him was easy, he was informative and honest in his correspondence even provided warning on the weather. His vehicle was spotless and he is an excellent driver. Wished we could have spent more time with him, if we return we will be sure to book with Patrick again.

My mom and I booked a day wine tour last minute, and Rémi was super flexible and accommodating! We didn't expect to have so much fun and learn so much about Provence's history at the same time. It honestly ended up being the best part of our trip - Rémi is the best! I'd recommend Gentle Provence to anyone.

This is a review about our experience "so far" with Christopher and Ooh Provence. A number of months ago, as usual, I did extensive research and found a photographer and I contacted him to see about a photo experience while in Marseille. He responded immediately and then told me about his tour company which extends beyond just photography. It was perfect...a guide that could help 2 amateur photographers get some unique shots in a great city plus learn about the history at the same time. I find this is a great way to explore a city. So, of course ,I booked and paid the deposit etc. and we confirmed our date. Then along came Covid 19 and I finally had to cancel .This company offers full refund up to 24 hours in advance of tour and Christopher had no problem with an immediate refund. I will add that is not the case with some hotels etc. I am so impressed with the customer service under very extraordinary circumstances and will definitely book with Ooh Provence in the future when we can return post Covid. Based on my experience so far I am sure we will have a great time touring Marseille and the surrounding area with Christopher. I often find the true test of a good travel company is how they handle unexpected problems and can be flexible. Christopher delivers on this for sure!!
