David, the guide, was great. He is really flexible and allows you to stay as long as you want at any site. He is knowledgable and is great at sharing some of the mythology surrounding the construction of some of the sites you will see. The tour is varied - some beautiful old villages, a gorgeous lake, a little walking through some amazing rock formations to some viewpoints and a stunning old abbey. Make sure you wear shoes that are decent for some walking! And pack your picnic lunch to have by the lake. I was surprised that I was the only guest on the tour. So many of the region's guides won't do a tour for only one person, and David did not even raise the price! The tour is excellent value, and very enjoyable! Beware that the starting point is a little outside the centre of Montpellier, but it is an easy tram ride to get there.

I can highly recommend this photography tour, even for those already familiar with Carcassonne. We genuinely learned many new tricks, as well as seeing parts of the Cité de Carcassonne we had never seen before, and learning some history along the way. Laurence is a charming, well-informed guide.

We had an amazing visit of Camargue today with Safaris Camargue Alpilles. Big thanks to our guide, Gerald, who gave us an amazing, passionate, informative 4 hours tour on company's safari car. The views, the stories, the weather, everything was perfect. It is also worth to mention that the company was prudent about the hygiene during the tour (sanitized car, face mask on guide). I would also like to thank the Office de Tourisme d'Arles for helping us to quickly organize our Camargue visit. Definitely recommend taking the tour! Grand merci!

dear all travellers, its me again! another day another review. Me and judith decided after this crazy year we have all had that it was time for a spiritual break. We booked our tour in hope of gaining a stronger connection to the Lord. We arrived bang on time to find robertto no where in sight so we had a panic. It must have been at least an hour and robertto finally turns up with no apology or sympathy he just rocked up with his dora the explorer backpack, walking boots and quater length walking shorts in the colour beige. We began our pilgrimage with another couple named margaret and jonathan who were both gorgeous and made us chuckle quite a few times, although jonathan was slightly cheeky and did try to have little flirt with my wife judith ( i was unimpressed) It was lets say about 2 hours into the walk we were going over some difficult and challenging walking conditions and i fell even though i had my new mountain warehouse walking boots i still managed to fall (complaint has been forwaded to mountain warehouse ) i looked to my left and noticed robertto had a cheeky little smirk on his face i was already disappointed with him but this just tipped me over the edge (literally) and even worse it was the gorgeous jonathan who struggled to pick i knew myself that i shouldn't have had that extra croissant this morning. Overall, i do wish to visit again and maybe making to the destination this time as due to severe injury i couldn't complete my pilgrimage. Auvoir!
