PROVENCE!.... 3000 years of history,
a lifetime of remembrance

My 15th C. PARISH HOUSE is nestled within the Old Medieval Ramparts of the "City of the Popes"... AVIGNON! From this Bed and Breakfast-style "base camp", you never unpack, and your AMERICAN tour leader, acting as your Host and Guide, leads you on NINE (9) daily tours of Provence, in our air-conditioned luxury tour van. We fill up each year for TWO basic reasons:

A. Our $3100 Two-Week (15 days) tour is TWICE as long, at about half the cost, per day, as our nearest Provence competitor. With us you get a full Seven (7) days, 68 hours of accompanied, guided touring, not 48. In addition, you get 6 strategically-interspersed days of rest to recuperate and relax, or to explore, shop, cafe-hop, museum-hop (3 art, 2 Roman, 3 Renaissance), attend our Provence Gourmet Cooking School, even go to the Opera!

AVIGNON is compact and sophisticated, with the fragrance of Provence's lavender and sunflower countryside just outside the door!

B. This is a SMALL tour group, limited to EIGHT (8) guests. Savvy travelers stick to SMALL tour groups which give you entree into small gourmet restaurants, expand your choices, and make it a tour to remember. No 30-passenger bus tour here, but the real out-of-the-way Provence (see Itinerary) with an AMERICAN tour leader whose LOCAL KNOWLEDGE has been highlighted in three issues of ITN ("International Travel News") Magazine. He even speaks the local dialect.

TWO FULL WEEKS of Provence for $3100/3200** (depending on choice of suites).

ONE WEEK $2500, includes a custom itinerary of your choice.
The Provence Tour starts the 1st and 16th of each month, April to October

##For only $600 more you can participate in our main attraction - the celebrated FROMMER'S "the best deal in the South of France" and much heralded "sophisticated traveler's"##

Click the Van Daytrips for the contractual tour ITINERARY, and view the many extra "Options" which you get to vote on as a group. Since we always customize each tour, arranging "something special" from our different "themes", each tour is different, featuring different facets of the unique kingdom of "Old Provence", guided by your live-in Host, who has lived in Provence 15 years.
