The tour was wonderful. Sophie was our guide and it was just the three of us. She was an excellent guide. She told us lots of tidbits of the history of Marseille as well as took us to sample some of the wonderful local food. She brought the city to life for us and treated us more as dear friends rather than just another customer.

I went to Marseille for the first time and I wanted to see the maximum of sights in a minimum of time.
After reading numerous very good reviews of Yvonne I decided to book her and It was the best private tour I have never spent.
Thanks to Yvonne I maximized my short time ... she was so happy to do her job so she allowed me to share her passion for the area.
I learnt so much that I feel very quickly like a local.
Obviously I highly recommend her service and I will book her next time without hesitation

I think we were expecting a full fledged tour guide. Yvonne wasn’t credentialed to get to the cruise port so we had a long walk to find her which was a challenge for my 70+ parents. We also thought she would recommend things but there just wasn’t much dialogue. The lavender fields were beautiful and she knew about the church in Aix-En-Provence but little else. If you know everything about where to go and what to do it’s pleasant. If you need a tour guide and expert look elsewhere.
