Passionate about history, travel, food and Aix en Provence, I love introducing this city to visitors. Thousands of tourists have gone on my tours and have left loving Aix as much as I do. Interacting and getting to know other people makes this job a true joy for me. Plus having lived in France, the US and the UK, I am completely bilingual in both French and English. Can’t wait to see you on my tour soon!

Tour description

 Hello and welcome to my Historic Walking Tour of Aix en Provence where you will be able to visit 90% of the city's treasures in less than two hours. One of my many reviews sums it up well: “Absolute ripper of a walk! Edouard was a skilful tour guide who provided the right mix of history and insights, all delivered with fine humour. Would thoroughly recommend.”


We will start at the statue of Paul Cezanne near the Rotonde. You will be able to easily find me because I will be holding a blue umbrella. We will then visit:

-the Cours Mirabeau

-several picturesque fountains

-the former school of Paul Cezanne and Emile Zola

-the gothic church of Saint Jean de Malte

-several provencal squares

-a myriad of delightful gourmet shops

-Saint Sauveur Cathedral

-and much more...


You will get to meet a "local expert" who's been showing thousands of travelers the city for the last couple years. I also will provide you with good recommendations for restaurants in the city or whatever else you may want to do.


A bientôt!

Edouard
