I was a little disappointed in the trip as I thought that it was supposed to be in the footsteps of Van Gogh. The tour was more centred around the history of Arles and the Romans. although we did visit a couple of the artist's sites that he had painted including St-Paul-de-Mausole although no time to go into the hospital and see the room, and Les Antiques Saint Remy I expected to see other sites of interest especially Langlois Bridge,near Arles instead of wasting time in Arles walking around Roman Ruins.

Not good - the guide spoke English very poorly - Emily. And, she was uninterested in talking to the group

Laurent delightful and comfortable transport. Olive tasting and Les Baux hardly Van Gogh and no mention of this on itinerary, but good ambience and excellent balance between guide and free time.

Far better than anticipated. Tour leader most punctual, well spoken ,easily understood and most knowledgable. Arles, Les Baus and Saint Remy all fabulous to see.

The tour was too short to really appreciate the places where Van Gogh "hanged out" but it provided a good overview of the man and the places that inspired his art.

A good trip but far too hurried for the things there were to see.

The trip was quite informative. The tour guide was very well-versed in the history of the area and made the visits quite informative. I enjoyed the small group (a couple, the tour guide, and myself) and it was done in a way that didn't make it seem rushed. The entire tour was quite well done and I would, and have, strongly recommended to others going to the area to take it.
