“Private Tour St. Maximum Basilica and Cave”

Amazing day with Nathalie! She picked us up from the train station and off we went to the mountain where we hiked 40 minutes uphill until we reached the cave where Mary Magdeline lived the last 30 years of her life. You need appropraite shoes and be somewhat fit to do this. Nathalie hiked with us as well and provided great info about the cave, area, etc. The grotto has an active church inside and many people make pilgrimages here. Very moving. Once we descended we went into the town of St. Baume and had lunch and then toured the Basicilica of St Maximin where we viewed the relic of Mary Magdeleine. Can't say enough good things about how communicative Nathalie was during the entire booking process and during the day of our tour. Her price reflects the one on one attention and level of expertise of the area. Nathalie offers other tours of Provence and if we ever get the opportunity to return we will defiently give her a call!

Merci Kathy It was lovely to spend the day with you and Keith Great memories!!!

“Nathalie Rocks!!!”

Oh my. We thought we knew what we wanted to see in Provence and THEN Nat had ideas about additional adventures and experiences. Her suggestions were always excellent. She is knowledgeable, flexible and so very kind - and a GREAT sense of humor. We were a group of 6 with varying degrees of mobility and travel experience so flexibility was essential. I highly recommend you book your adventures with Nat.

“Wonderful Tour of Aix-en-Provence, Cassis and Marseille with Nathalie”

We just spent an amazing day visiting Aix-en-Provence, Cassis and Marseille with Nathalie. She is warm, friendly, knowledgeable, vivacious and absolutely delightful with a great sense of humour. My whole family loved her. Based on our requests, she planned the perfect itinerary. She was waiting for us at the Marseilles port terminal when we arrived by boat, and whisked us off in her very comfortable Mercedes van to her beautiful home town of Aix-en-Provence. She showed us all the charming sights and helped us buy some locally crafted hand painted clay figurines in the Christmas markets, She also kindly helped us buy essential pharmacy items we needed. Our next stop was Cassis, where she took us to a breathtakingly beautiful view at Cap Canille, followed by a wonderful bouillabaisse lunch at a fantastic restaurant on the waterfront (my husband’s request). As we wound our way back to Marseille, she took us to Notre Dame de la Garde, Vieux Port and numerous other lovely sights. She delivered us back to port in excellent time. We will treasure this wonderful day we spent with Nathalie.
