Travel Review: France Vacation, Provence, Food & Wine, Nature

Spend less time driving.

[TRAVEL COMPANY'S COMMENTS]

Dear Carla

Thank you for your review. I am really happy that you enjoyed Provence and Baux de Provence in particular – the old quarry at Baux de Provence is indeed stunning during the projections that they do inside.  The Picasso & the Spanish masters exhibition is what was probably on, and though I have not seen it myself I imagine it was incredible.  

I want to say that the driving in France is indeed quite tiring if you are on the lookout for beautiful country roads, breathtaking views and quaint villages.  A 60-mile journey on these windy local roads is a lot indeed.  There is a pretty great toll road system, that is on Motorways allowing high-speed travel at 81 Mph, but perhaps that did not appeal when you are on a vacation like this. If you are coming again to France and want to explore the remote corners of the countryside, perhaps I should suggest the TGV High-Speed Trains for each long journey and then a local driver/guide to drop you off in between each activity or site.

Thank you for traveling with us and this clear and honest review.
