The best tour we've ever been on - Absolutely Brilliant. I knew it would be because the customer service was fantastic. We had booked a tour precovid, and being Australian didn't have the ability to take it due to all the lockdowns. Refund came immediately. 4 years later, and we booked it again. I was so delighted when the company remembered us. Even more amazing, was when Veronica remembered us when we met them at the meeting point! We had Nicolas as our guide and what a charming man. He was knowledgable and passionate about showing us his beautiful area. He gave opinions, information, suggestions and had a terrific schedule that let us see what we wanted to see, in our own time, while also pointing out the areas we should go. He had the tour timed to perfection (and it helped the small group always seemed to be on time too). I can't fault the running of the tour. It was incredible. The area is stunning. The four places we went were unique, each different, each beautiful, and all somewhere we would have struggled to get to alone, since we don't drive (on that side of the road) and they were mildly remote. My husband and I were both gobsmacked by the beauty of Gordes, and as an artist I was delighted to see the ochre in Rousillon and go on that gorgeous walk. Fontaine de Vaucluse was beautiful, though the fountain far less interesting thant he little walk in town near the river. I can't praise Provans highly enough, nor recommend the tours strongly enough. It was the perfect mix of info and time out. GREAT tour, and if ever we're there again, we'll take another. Thankyou.

Discovering the Luberon - A marvellous day trip led by Nicholas whose detailed knowledge of the area and the four hilltop villages was really helpful to understand the area. Each of the villages offered something different with their own character. The Luberon is a lovely area and well worth visiting. We were given maps to and advice to enable us to wander around at our leisure and see what was worth viewing. It was a very well organised day and we took lots of photos to remember it. It is well worth taking the trip and we would highly recommend it.

Very well organized tour of Luberon - We took the tour of Luberon with Nicolas and it was a great day. We visited Gordes, Fontaine-de-Vaucluse, Roussillon and Menerbes. For every stop, we had the appropriate amount of time to explore and recommendations of what to do. There was a nice range of sites - Menerbes in particular wasn't as crowded as the other sites but still lovely. I would highly recommend Provans if you are considering a small group tour of the area!

Fantastic tour of Luberon Villages - I did the tour of Luberon villages from Avignon. Nicolas was a fantastic guide, giving lots of interesting information as we travelled between the villages. At each village he gave us a map, pointed out the key landmarks and gave us some recommendations. The tour was well organised with the right amount of time in each place - enough time to see what we wanted but without being rushed. The minibus was comfortable and the tour was a great way to see the villages without a car. Nico also had a great sheet of Avignon recommendations ready to be photographed, which have been great for the rest of my trip. I’m really glad I took this tour with Provans, they’re a locally owned small company and that showed in the exceptional service.
