My partner and I have just spent a full day with Rémi visiting two vineyards in the Châteauneuf-du-Pape region, the city of Avignon and lavender fields in the Luberon! Unbelievable! He met us at our hotel on time and we started right away. He was fluent in English and was keen to establish cultural connections with his clients. He is a trained sommelier, but he will take you wherever you want to go in Provence. He has extensive knowledge of the history of the region and current events. About halfway through he suggested a restaurant with wonderful views of the Rhône river and the countryside where we tasted a bottle of wine from a vineyard we had just visited. Overall a great guide that I would highly recommend.
