The idea to create POINT SOLEIL Provence came after the
enormous demands we had from family, friends and later on friends of
friends to show them the Provence but in a special way.
They wanted
to visit the basic spots, those "you must have seen", but
also the unknown area's to discover the real life in Provence. Little
by little we learned more and more about our region and we ended up
with our address book full of good restaurants, scenic roads, fine wine
cellars and the very special addresses that are so typical of Provence
(lavender, olive oil, pottery...).
Our guests were always so enthusiastic
about our tours that we decided to turn these occasional guidings into
our full-time occupation.
We design customized trips for the independent traveler with special
interest: culture, history, art, craft, nature... For those who have
their own itinerary in mind we offer private tours that meets their
demands.
We are both English speaking so there will be no language problems.
When joining us you will be the unencumbered traveler free to enjoy
your journey without worry.
