This trip was excellent and would 100% do it all over again. Worth the money! Jerome is very knowledgeable about the locations we visit. He was very caring getting my senior parents in and out of the van. This trip is very family friendly as well. Don’t worry about a thing and he handles it all including water, charger, etc.

Jerome is fantastic! We had a wonderful tour with him. He took us to the best bakery in southern France! It was the most charming village he then took us Eze and nice. It was gorgeous. We had a great time. He knew so much information about the history and all kinds of facts. He thought of everything. He brought a stool to help us get in the van and he brought water and a spray bottle to keep us cool. He was fantastic I would definitely do this tour again!
