This was good. We saw a lot, and it was nice driving around the countryside. There was about an hours stop in each place - which was enough time but not lots of time to linger if you wanted to see everything! Orange was great - we spent the time here at the Roman theatre, which was really interesting it had an audioguide. I suspect you could get a train to Orange and do that by yourself, but it was easy doing it as part of the day. We saw Gordes from afar photo stop only but had about an hour in Rousillon. Rousillon was probably my favourite stop - you can do a half hour walk up close to the ochra coloured sandstone which I thought was well worth doing. We also stopped at Les Baux, I went into the castle ruins but perhaps it would have been as nice to have sat in a cafe. Again, it was an hours stop. We drove through St Remy and stopped at the hospital Van Gogh was in. Our final stop was Pont du Gard, which was really cool. You can go into the river here, so maybe wear shorts! The vineyard stop would have been fine, if I hadn't done it on one of their tours the day before. However, the guide walked into the little town with me instead and I did a cellar tasting instead.
Its an easy way to see a lot of the region, and I enjoyed the free time in each place. It was well organised.

This tour was great even though unfortunately we were too late in the season for the lavender fields. The tour guide was fantastic and very thoughtful. Two people had cancelled so there were just four adults a toddler and a baby so it was a nice small group. The Pont du gard was really worth seeing as were the villages we saw. It was a long day, but well worth it. You could never see it as easy doing it on your own.
If you want to see everything in the Provence region in a single day, this is the tour for you. You only get 45 minutes to an hour at each stop, but you really do see everything in the region. The tour was from 9 am to 8 pm, so get ready for a full day of travel. The stops are interesting and fun...
If you want to see everything in the Provence region in a single day, this is the tour for you. You only get 45 minutes to an hour at each stop, but you really do see everything in the region. The tour was from 9 am to 8 pm, so get ready for a full day of travel. The stops are interesting and fun, and I particularly enjoyed pont du gard. Lunch is not provided, and I would recommend bringing a sandwich to eat in the van. Most people get lunch at Pont du Gard, but the food isn’t great there. I would recommend getting lunch in Les Baux, although we didn’t there until around 2 pm. Our driver was kind and informative, and watched our backs closely when it came to safety/leaving belongings behind/traffic. (I think his name was Ahmed?) Overall a good trip!
What a great day! We did see so much and visited so many towns. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the area. It was a long day and we were tired when we returned but well worth it. I had thought we would stop for a sit down lunch, but we were able to just grab something as we went...
What a great day! We did see so much and visited so many towns. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the area. It was a long day and we were tired when we returned but well worth it. I had thought we would stop for a sit down lunch, but we were able to just grab something as we went along. He gave us suggestions where to pick up food. Well worth taking this tour. We visited Orange, Chateauneuf de Papa winery, Pont de Guard, Les Baux-de-Provence, beautiful and a must see, Gordes, and Roussilon. We did a lot of driving and walking but it was worth it!
This is a great tour with lots of sights in a relatively short amount of time. I wish there would have been more time at Les Baux but otherwise thought it was a great length at each site and overall we saw a lot of sights in one day.

There was initially a bit of a mix up with our tour (the Provence day tour not Le grand tour) we only booked online the day before but received an email saying that unfortunately they were fully booked but wanted to upgrade us for free to Le grand tour. We accepted as we only had one day free and who hates free upgrades? We loved this tour, I’m glad we did go on this one, the extra stops were some of our favourite, so glad we didn’t miss out. Orange, Gordes and Roussillon are beautiful! Julian was fantastic, he had to juggle between English and Spanish and did a great job. He was funny, interactive and seemed to know everything about the region. It’s a long day so I’d recommend taking food and drink that’s easy to snack on as there’s little time to eat, but there’s a bit of spare time in the car to snack traveling to places. Bare in mind in March it’s very cold and not a lot of shops are open at this time so if you have a choice go on the warmest day possible for your trip as late into March as you can. Bundle up, it’s windy on top of the hills! Fantastic tour, book Le Grand for sure!
