We worked with Philippe to create a wine tasting tour in the South of France. He guided us in the selection of wineries, recommended a gorgeous small village for lunch and when, during lunch, he learned of our interest in medieval history, drove us to a 12th century abbey in the area. He is extremely knowledgeable, friendly and fluent in English--totalement sympa! We are lucky to have worked with him and highly recommend him.
