Great and diverse tour of South West France. From the busy cities to coast, Alps and countryside all were fantastic. Great tour guide and driver who were friendly, helpful and informative. Loved the convenience of being dropped close to locations and picked up in the right spot at the end.
Enjoyed this tour. Truda, our guide was great, very knowledgeable. Everything was well organised. Ervin’s our driver was really good. Generally the accommodation was good, except as it was so hot a couple of the hotels did not have air conditioning, which made it difficult to sleep. I did not enjoy the dinner we had in Castelnau de Montmiral and as this was an old hotel it was very hot. Hotel du Barry was a lovely hotel, although it was a bit hot as no air conditioning, but the meal at this hotel was exquisite, absolutely delicious. One suggestion for consideration would be a river cruise to see a different perspective of some of the towns we visited. I would have preferred less 1 night stays. It was great being in one place for a few nights and doing day trips from there.
A wonderful journey through the south of France, experiencing great food, wine, historical towns, beautiful vistas - and meeting new friends. The trip has a nice balance of organised things to see and do - and provides time to explore as well. Our guide, Leticia, was fantastic - she provided insights into the places we were visiting, the very interesting and complex history of the region, and always had a smile and a special local treat for us... all in all we were very happy...
The tour group was about the right size and good value for money. The tour guide and driver were excellent and took us to places in SW France that we would not have gone to by ourselves.
Charly was a very informative guide. Could not done more to help me. Was so obliging. Took us on a wonderful tour, carried my bag a lot off the time. Such wonderful scenery and excurtions.
Tour is well worth doing.
Very enjoyable tour with excellent tour leader Nathalie and Ken our fantastic driver. It was a small group so we had extra space on the bus. Some of the hotels were a little tricky with stairs and no lifts which is hard if you are travelling solo. It was lovely to see the countryside and experience the beauty and nature away from the city with Nathalie and Ken sharing their knowledge of their special spots to make it an amazing experience.
Exceptional experience - knowledgeable and engaging guide, fantastic accommodation, brilliant coach and driver. Wonderful way to see and experience rural and village life in France. Highly recommend.
Top class
Charlie was a great host. I loved the tour
Close your eyes and imagine the ripple of grapevines swaying in Bordeaux’s warm breeze. The satisfying crunch of fresh Atlantic oysters being shucked in Arachon Bay. The tap of footsteps meandering slowly along the cobblestones of ancient Carcassonne. The honeyed scent of fresh Périgord strawberries at the Sarlat Market. These are just some of the moments you can experience in Southwest France – and we can’t wait for you to relish them with us on this intimate tour.
