5.00The walking tour of inner Avignon was just terrific! Jerome was wonderfully entertaining, personable and informative! His knowledge of the history benefitted from him living in the main area of the tour. His energy and enthusiasm were infectious. We would highly recommend Jerome as a tour guide as well as the specific private tour that he provided.
Tour Guide Extraordinaire!

5.00Jerome was a knowledgeable and wonderful tour guide. We overslept and he was very kind and met us closer to our hotel. He tailored the tour to our interests. He speaks English very well and was so interesting to listen to and learn from. We wish the tour was longer!
