An Excellent Day in Provence with a New Friend

Published on Oct, 2024

Our tour with Chris was a wonderful way to spend a day exploring the Luberon Valley. From the moment he picked us up at our hotel in Arles, he provided an experience that was educational and more importantly, FUN. We visited vineyards and an olive oil mill and were able to sample some lovely understated wines and some pretty mind-blowing olive oil varieties. Chris ferried us all about and took us to grab a quick bite in Lourmarin before visiting the Chateau du Lourmarin. We did a good bit of riding but Chris paced out the stops so that it didn’t feel like we were trapped in the car and we enjoyed plenty of walking around some gorgeous places. Our time chatting and walking around with Chris didn’t feel so much like a guided tour as a visit with a friend. We truly enjoyed his company and cannot recommend OohProvence tours enough. If you are looking for an immersive experience that isn’t too serious (although I’m sure they could be if that was your thing), then reach out to Chris and Laurent.

Wonderful, stress free day in Provence

Published on Jun, 2023

ne of the highlights on our recent Mediterranean cruise was the opportunity to spend the day with OohProvence and Christopher Curtis. After arriving in Marseille, Christopher picked us up at the cruise dock and we spent an amazing day exploring some of the less crowded areas of Provence--an olive farm, a farmer's market, a castle and some wonderful wine tasting. Chris was a great communicator (in English and French) and had some fantastic ideas for a wide range of activities that we would never have known about. He was also careful to get us back to the ship on time for sailing that night. I highly recommend OohProvence for your guide to Provence--luxurious and stress-free.
