A perfect day. Arnaud ensured we had a wonderful well paced day and provided lots of information about each sight. The variety of experiences from Roman buildings, medieval towns, the oil mill, awesome carrieres des lumieres & a fabulous picnic made this tour a standout. Highly recommend Ventourisme.
