There were too many destinations on a one day tour allowing very minimal time to explore at any one location at length. Most of the time spent was in transit (train/car). There was no tours through the locations when the group arrived simply a taxi service. Expected more for the cost.

Doing what: Avignon and Provence Day Trip from Paris by TGV Train

This was an excellent tour. The guide, Julian, did a great job of explaining the sites. There was plenty of time to spend at each location visited.

Delightful day, with transportation to and from the train station both ways. Avignon Palace gorgeous-this is a self guided tour. So are the other stops but they are delightful to explore on one's own. Recommended.

Doing what: Avignon and Provence Day Trip from Paris by TGV Train

Excellent!!! What an experience!!! Highly recommended. The guide in Avignon (Adeline) was amazing!!

Fantastic trip. The transfer to the TGV was flawless, the train ride was fun. We were greeted by 2 very nice guides who took us on our trip to Avignon, St. Remy and Le Beau. Perfect trip, much more that i had expceted. The Van Gough hospital is not to be missed if you are an art fan. This is the second tour through Viator that we have loved.

Doing what:

The Popes' Palace and wine tasting were terrific. We were the only couple wine tasting and the young man gave us his full attention and many, many types of wine. Also part of it was a wonderful plate of different types of cheese, all part of the deal.
