5.00My husband and I booked two tours with Laurent. Both days were wonderful. We visited Arles, Aix en Provence and other sites. We highly recommend Oooh Provence. If we return to the the area we will book another tour.

Fabulous Tour of Arles and the Camargue

5.00This was a fabulous tour - from exploring the history and architecture of Arles to enjoying the nature and beauty of the Camargue. It was an area I have long wanted to visit and Christopher was an incredible guide. We saw so many different intriguing areas but the day still felt very relaxed - it was like a day trip with a long time friend rather than a formal tour. I can't recommend oohprovence and Christopher Curtis enough, and definitely look forward to more tours with them when I am next in Provence.
