5.00This was a wonderful tour. Robert loves the local food, respects the vendors and is very knowledgeable. He found some “offbeat” locations and we were welcomed. He’s a very good guide and we recommend this tour.
Thomas. Is a great guide

5.00Thomas was a substitute for the original guide . He was excellent. We had a wonderful day with him. The tastings were excellent. I was glad that I did not have breakfast because I could enjoy the amazing focaccia sandwich in the market, many tastings, stop for a coffee and the lavender ice cream. This was my first food tour. I would highly recommend him. Sheila

5.00We had a marvelous experience on our food tour with Thomas! We learned a great deal about the specialties of Provence, what is genuinely unique to the region and what is "commercialized" or lower quality. Each stop and tasting was a joy! His passion for food and his heritage is delightful! I highly recommend this unique and joyful experience!
Delicious and easy to understand

5.00Most important, Thomas is friendly and easy to undestand. He shares his passion not only for food but also for Aix and all things Provence. He introduced us to a few tastings, a lovelly lunch, a coffee break and ice cream. A wonderful way to learn about Aix in your visit.
