Cassis and Aix were both charming, and the group enjoyed the boat ride. The scenery was wonderful! And our guide, Thomas, was exceptionally knowledgeable, sharing a wealth of facts about the areas we visited. It was a great tour.
Great tour

Our guide was great- very knowledgeable and attentive. It was great to get out of Marseille and enjoy the surrounding areas.
Nice visit to Cassis and Aix-en-Provence but too historical explanations

The guide was not especially friendly. His explanations were too historical and boring. We were there for a tourist visit, recreational, and not for a school class... The visit time between the two cities was disproportionate. We didn't have enough time in Cassis, contrary to what was noted on the description. Having said that, he took us to see a very beautiful cove and we were able to discover pretty cities. He had good advice at the restaurant level.

Our guide Bernardo was excellent. Very knowledgeable very friendly very professional. I gave it a three stars because it was not as advertised. There was no photo stop at the Cape. 30 minutes. Cassis, we were there for two hours not four hours. we were unable to go on the cruise to the national park. We only had time for lunch and to see the village. Aix en Provence was two hours as advertised and we did get to enjoy that. But we were very disappointed. We wanted to go to the national park. We thought we had four hours in cassis and there was two hours And no amazing photo stop that we were supposed to have did not happen either so I’m confused as to why you advertise it as this when that is not what it was. So that was a big disappointment.

Transportation, Commentary Along the Way, and Freetime

If you are looking for transportation, a commentary during the ride, some quick advice as to what to see, this is the tour for you. Once you reach each destination you are told where and when to meet back, and you are own your own. Nice enough and knowledgeable enough guide. Transportation is in a modern 9-person van (3 front including guide/driver, three middle row and three in back). Highlight of the tour was probably the 10-minute photo op atop the mountain in the national park along the way. I WOULD ONLY RECCOMMEND THIS TOUR IF YOU ARE NOT INTERESTED IN A "GUIDED/ESCORTED" TOUR.

The whole excursion was a lot of fun! You get to see a ton of the region, many of the highlights, and it’s all packed into a single day. The calanques at cassis were breathtaking and aix-en-Provence was out of a movie set! Pepe was a wonderful guide filled with knowledge about the area and its history.

Sebastian was a great tour guide, answering questions and providing an informed narrative of the area and history. He provided the right balance and left enough free time to explore on our own. Meeting spots were easy to find
Great tour and most cliff pit stop !

Florence was a great guide, gave us good suggestions for Cassis freetime and a small tour of Aix. The stop before Cassis, Cap Canailles, is breathtaking and probably the highlight of this tour. Our reservation showed 4h in Cassis but it’s actually two in Cassis and two in Aix. Merci Florence pour le bel après-midi!
