A wonderful 'escape' on a beautiful vintage Ural motorcycle & sidecar. Eric was lovely, and shared lots of information about the region. The motorcycle trip was the highlight of my Aix-en-Provence holiday, which says a lot as every day was amazing. La belle échappée indeed! 😁☀️😎

A brilliant tour! The three of us went there and Eric and Kevin were great. Safe drivers but a lot of fun. The winery we went to was really good and we also had a delicious surprise. A great way to spend time in Aix and would highly recommend it.
