Top tour in Provence
She is at it again. One of my best friends has just released a tour of Provence. If perchance you have read one of her six books you need no prodding from me. Ann Rickard is leading a two-week tour of Provence in June of next year and again in 2013. Her tours are have a base in an 18th century stone maison. Excursions to nearby towns include Avignon, Gordes and hill top villages There are market tours, gala dinners, long luncheons, elementary French lessons, even cooking demonstrations. I’ve known Ann and husband Geoffrey for some years and I know that there is always a queue of people making enquiries about the tours which the couple schedule on a semi-regular basis. For more information, inclusions ad conditions go visit www.annrickard.com or telephone the lady herself on 0408 557 311. In a nutshell, these tours are like having a personal invitation to a two-week party in the south of France. I could not thinking of a better French experience. Folks! It’s party time !!
