We are a group of 4, booked with Bonjour Provence Tour for a 9 hours excursion from cruise port in Toulon, France. It is easy to book online and final payment is only due on the day of the trip. Our plan was to visit lavender and sunflower fields in Valensole and UNESCO city Aix-en-Provence in early July. We are very grateful to book our trip with Bonjour Provence Tour Company. It was a Sunday trip and there are not a lot of company will go to Toulon to do the excursion. Most of the company are based in Aix-en-Provence, Marceille or Nice. Silvio is very accommodating and tried his best to fit into our plan. He answered every questions and replied with all the advices that are really helpful in our planning. Before our excursion, he even sent us an email notifying us that the harvest was early. We really appreciate his advance notification that we will not get disappointed when we arrived at the field. He offered that we can change our plan to visit somewhere else. But we chose to stick with our plans.
Our driver Marlon came before our meeting time 8:30 a.m., very punctual and was standing outside the gate with a sign in his hand already. The minivan was very spacious for 4 of us and he helped me a lot when I was getting off the van. He is very kind. Thanks. Marlon is very good in history and gave us a lot of info during the trip about the lavender, sunflower, history of Aix-en-Provence. He took us to a lavender field that they have lavender ice-cream. O my, this is the best lavender ice-cream that we ever had. Thanks Marlon. In Aix-en-Provence, he toured and walked with us, brought us to a local bakery and we had the best croissant, apricot tart, apple tart and baguette sandwich in the Aix-en-Provence. He acted as our translator and helped us a lot during the visit. Thanks Marlon. After our visit to Aix-en-Provence, Marlon drove us to Marceille and gave us a city tour in the car. He dropped us to Notre Dame de la Garde. The church is so beautiful and the panoramic view from the church is stunning. Now we know that next time for sure we have to go back to Marceille and for sure with Bonjour Provence Tour. No second thoughts. We had a wonderful time with him and BP tour. He are able to arrive back to the cruise port on time. Please let me extend our appreciation on behalf of our group to BP Tour that may we wish you every success and prosperity with your business.
Our experience with Bonjour Provence Tours was great from start to finish. Silvio was incredibly helpful in arranging the logistics of our tour and very prompt and communicative. He went above and beyond to make sure the tour fit our needs (we went on the tour of Cannes, Monaco, Nice, and made a special request to stop in Eze).
Our guide Paul was wonderful. He knew a ton of interesting information about each place that we visited and about many cities along our route as we drove. His English is perfect and he has a very kind personality. He's also a great driver and we felt very safe, comfortable, and excited the entire trip. We saw everything we wanted to see and then some! I would highly recommend Bonjour Provence Tours and we will absolutely be using them again! Merci Paul et Silvio !
We are from Singapore and it was out first time to aix en provence
Booked the day trip out from Provence to Nice/Monte carlo and it was the best decision ever! The driver Marlon was so informative, and knowledgeable tour guide! He drove really well throughout. the 7-seater car fitted me and my godmum, and a family of 3 aussies well.
The ride was comfortable, Marlon drove safely and steadily.
He even added additional stop at fragonad perfumery along the drive to monte carlo.
Appreciate that!
My friend and I went on the picturesque Luberon bus tour this October and absolutely loved every second! Our driver and guide, Marlin, was so attentive and knowledgable. He made sure we got ample time in each village and even elongated the tour to take us to a wine tasting. It was absolutely fantastic. Small car, personalized experience, and the BEST way to visit local villages near Aix. Highly recommend for those who are weary of large group tours but don’t want to pay the private driver price tag. Thank you Marlin for the fantastic day!
My daughter and I booked an afternoon Lavender Tour with Bonjour Provence via Viator to avoid the heat and I was so looking forward to it as I have been planning for it for last three years since Covid outbreak and it is our last summer in France. But unfortunately it happened to coincide with the riot triggered by the death of Nahel and the serious violence at Marseille made the tour impossible as it would be 11pm by the time we come back to Marseille. Of course, we were very disappointed but it was understandable.
But next morning, luckily a couple cancelled their booking and Silvio gave me the priority! We were given only 10 min to get ready and we made it! It was the moment when my dream came true! The Lavender field was as impressive as all those instagram posting. I am so grateful that Silvio was empathetic and tried to work it out for me and my daughter.
The Lavender Tour lasts till August(I thought it was till mid Jul!), says Silvio. He speaks French, English and Italian and very kind and knowledgeable. Whoever goes to the South of France, contact Bonjour Provence to enjoy this seasonal unmissable scenery!
