A magnificent stroll through the vineyards of Aix, drivers as professional as they are attentive, a lot of smells and landscapes... In short, a superb family experience. To be recommended without moderation

My wife and I did a one-hour version of this trip and it was arranged through the Tourism Office in Aix-en-Provence. Eric was very prompt and fitted us with helmets and expertly guided us out of the city and onto the road toward Montagne Ste-Victoire. We stopped at a lavender field, a photo stop for St-Victorie mountain, and then through the countryside and back to a panoramic view of the whole city of Aix. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for something different. Eric was a great driver and told us about many of the high interest areas along the way. Thank you!

This tour was incredible, highly recommend! It was a great way to see the country side and see the towns. The vineyards were all high quality and authentic, and generous with their tastings. We also didn't feel pressured to buy anything, which was a plus. Our driver and guide, Kevin, was superb. He was fun, personal, safe, and entertaining. He also took us to a lavender field since it was in season, which was unexpected but made the trip. Definitely worth the money!

We had a great time driving the motorcycle with sidecar through the National Park, from Marseille to Cassis. The weather was cold, windy, and rainy, but our guides were absolutely wonderful! I had total confidence as we went through the mountains. It is an adventure that we will remember! Thanks Kevin and Eric!!
