Thomas did a great job taking us around and teaching us about the history and culture of Aix-en Province, and giving us tips on what to see in Cassis. I definitely recommend this tour. It was way more than just transportation.

This trip completely met my goal of being able to see two beautiful and contrasting parts of Provence from a cruise without worrying about logistics.
Very smooth experience, from pickup within the terminal so we don't even have to walk out, to drop off right on time. Sebastien was excellent and knowledgeable.
I really appreciated the balance of short tour in Aix with time on our own in Aix and Cassis, because I prefer to do my own thing. I loved being able to catch a 1 hour boat ride to the calanques and relaxing on the beach (bring bathing suit and towel!).
Note: this is not for those who want hand holding the whole way, nor for those who struggle to find your way back to a meeting place!

This is a transportation only tour really. We had a great guide who gave us a few highlights on our way both stops. Once arriving you are on your own, which is what we wanted. The markets in Aix-en-Provence are amazing and the second stop Cassis is a great place to have lunch by the seaside. Try to local wine in Cassis, we had a local dry white Chardonnay which was amazing. July/August is hot and this is a walking at your own pace tour when you arrive at the stops.

Sebastien was a wonderful tour guide. He was personable and pleasant to be with. We were a small group of strangers who enjoyed seeing and hearing about beautiful Aix en Provence and the seaside town of Cassis. Sebastien, thank you for such a great day!

Pepe was a great guide, could talk about any subject and very clear about where to go during our free time. Would choose to do again, especially because it’s small size of group.
