5.00Gordana is the most wonderful host. Excellent historical knowledge and wonderful English for the poor French speakers. Highly recommended.
History of Pont du Gard

5.00Gordon’s was such a pleasure to lead our family for this half day trip to Nîmes, Uzès and Pont du Gard. We had originally planned to drive ourselves but it was such a pleasure to relax and soak up all the knowledge and history that she provided. The length of the trip was perfect and Gordana knew all the ins and outs and special spots in each place to visit. I would highly recommend her tour!!!
The best half day tour of sights from Avignon

5.00Gardana was one of the absolutely best guídes I have ever had the pleasure working with. The tour was fantastic, she is clearly an accomplished historian who provided fascinating color as we drove on back roads to Roman Nimes, the drop-dead gorgeous Uzes and the incomparable Pont-du-Gard. We were scheduled for ~4h but the trip was closer to 5 as we had plenty of independiente to wander around the sights. The price paid was an absolute bargain for what will be a real highlight of our 3-week trip to Europe
Fun, brilliant, informative, just amazing!

5.00The tour is one of the best ever with a lively, fun, very knowledgable guide! Two villages with a beautiful very large statued and fountained garden and a preserved coliseum ! Then on to the aqueduct that is so large and perfect you are awestruck. My only complaint is I didn’t have more time to hike about the park and picnic. Do this tour with this wonderful guide!

5.00Gordana was a great guide. Very friendly, and full of information. Well worth the time and money. We saw a lot of things that I didn't know existed.
Pleasant time learning about Nîmes, Uzès, and Pont du Gard

5.00We had a pleasant and informative tour with Gordana and Emily. Emily did a great job with the driving and we felt very safe. Gordana gave us solid information regarding the history and context of the Roman aqueduct. We appreciated that our level of interest was taken into consideration and the tour was tailored accordingly. We enjoyed the advice for our time touring around on our own. The cost seemed appropriate for the amount of time that we toured. I recomend this trip for anyone and especially those interested in wanting a general overview of the history of the Romans in Provence. We really could not have had a more pleasant tour. We were a party of three adults.

5.00Gordana was fantastic! We spent a wonderful day with her viewing the Roman ruins and Aquaduct. Her knowledge of the area was incredible with a lovely personality and smile to match. I would highly recommend her on any tour that you want to do in the region. You will be thrilled that you chose Gordana to be your guide. Five stars.
Tourist circuit of excellent quality.

5.00Beautiful visit with comments and explanations. Gordana has mastered both his subject and his vehicle (spacious and very clean). I highly recommend it. I can’t wait to do another tour with her.
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.
