Gordana is beyond compare!

5.00When I was searching for tours that included Pont du Gard, I was drawn to “the one in which people uniformly raved about Gordana.” When we arrived at the pickup location and a bubbly, sparking, smiling woman said, “I am Gordana,” I was both thrilled and instantly charmed. As an added treat, Gordana’s daughter Emily accompanied us. She is a bright, energetic and delightful young woman who was along on a “training trip” as she adds new tours to her repertoire in her mom’s highly successful company. Gordana runs her tour with an effective blend of planned narration and solicitation of questions. We asked lots of questions, all of which Gordana was able to answer fully, but even more welcome was her intense interest in learning new things from us. The hours flew by in a relaxing blend of formal guidance and free time to explore on our own. The sites were impressive and memorable, but what we will remember with the most pleasure from this day was our time with Gordana and Emily. Five stars are inadequate. We signed up for a tour; what we got was a lasting memory. Thank you, ladies!
A Perfect Day Out

5.00Gordana was a wonderful guide. She has created a trip with an excellent mix of information and socialising while driving, clear instructions at each stop, and ample free time. Gordana established what our preferences might be and adjusted the experiences to suit. She was full of fascinating information about everything from local weather and agriculture to history and architecture. Uzes and Nimes were both amazing, but our final stop at Pont du Gard was the ultimate highlight. It is one of those experiences where photos do not do the place justice. It was just a wonderful day.
Great way to spend part...

5.00Great way to spend part of your day learning about the history of the Romans and these places! Knowledgeable, friendly, and thoughtful local guide who taught us so much and was extremely understanding of the flexibility needed with our baby being a member of the tour group.

5.00My daughter and I went on a half-day tour with Gordana and we are very happy with our choice. We had wanted to visit Pont du Gard for a while now and this tour was a great way to see it. Gordana was energetic and very knowledgeable, providing us with a wealth of information about each location we visited and the surrounding areas. At each stop, we had plenty of time to walk around and see the sights. I will definitely book another tour with Gordana if I am back near Avignon.
Pont du Gard plus much more

5.00While the Pont du Gard tours were all sold out (popular place!) we managed to find this one which was titled "Provence Tour Half Day" ... Lucky for us that the tourism office in Avingon hooked us up with this guide, Gordana, because she was terrific! And affordable! She showed us the aquaduct plus all the charming villages in the area. Couldn't be happier!
Provence at its best!
