Nabib was a brilliant raconteur and imparted the history of the region very well. Going on a Monday caused less crowds allowing for great pictures in the two most beautiful villages on this tour: Gourdon and Tourettes. Note to the company owner: the perfume factory is a complete waste of time. We all disliked it strongly and felt the time would be much better spent in the towns. This is not a criticism of our guide who was exceptional. Please revamp this portion fot the sake of others who have now been warned.

By far the best experience I had in France. Seeing all these small towns and learning the history of the country outside of nice was nothing short of amazing. Do yourself a favor and go on this adventure!
