NOTES
Born and raised in Arles—and fluent in English—Sebastien is un vrai Provencal…a real native! After spending few years living alongside the Mediterranean coast, he decided to leave home. His adventure started with New-York, followed with Sweden and finishing up with London, where he lived for over 4 years. But he then was ready to come home.
Passionate about food, wine and local traditions he now offers authentic travel experiences following various seasons and themes.
REVIEWS
10 women in Provence for a week! Our day outing with Sebastien was one of the highlights of our time here. He took us to a fantastic market in St Remy, an olive mill in Les Baux, and to the festival of lights / art exhibit in the Carrieres des Baux. While we could have done any of these things on our own, it was a joy to have our group guided— we were hands free for a day to just take it all in, not worry about how and when to get somewhere and to be guided to the best spots. Sebastien is a wealth of information about the region — he was a true joy to be with from start to finish. I highly recommend a day out with Seb to any group visiting Provence.
best wishes from the Girls of Gancel.
Exceptionally well. Sebastien could not have been more helpful, he really made everyone feel welcome and he responded to any query immediately.
Elodie,
We are in Normandy, and soon we will be back in the USA. Stephen and Grace are already back.
I wanted to drop you a note to say how much you contributed to the enjoyment of our trip. We have often had guides with substantial expertise, but rarely with the imagination and personality to capture the attention of three generations. And she gave French lessons too!
Please accept our heartfelt thanks, and feel free to use us as a reference - not that you should ever need it.
