Our Story
Join us on our intimate Tours of Southwest France, Provence and Normandy. After showing our friends and family the wonders of these areas we created "Petits Tours en France" so we could share it all with you. We will visit vineyards, prehistoric caves, medieval villages and truly experience the magic that is France. Our tours are specially designed for a smaller group, you will find your experience is so much richer than it is for a solo traveller or a big bus tour.
Smaller groups offer security, camaraderie and a stronger affinity with your destination. All meals, accommodation and daily transport are included in the tour, so come along and embrace the history, wine, food and culture not to mention the sunflowers!

Testimonials
"In June 2024 we joined Trish and Dave and 4 other travellers for a week in Provence and a week in Normandy. It was a wonderful experience, with everything organised so that we just had to sit back and enjoy it.
Our accommodation in Provence was rural, beautiful rooms and fabulous views, not to mention the swimming pool just outside the door for a dip after a hot day of sightseeing. In Normandy we stayed in a townhouse right in the city and were able to walk out for dinner in the evening with a welcome walk home afterwards.
The food was great. Interesting breakfasts every day, a restaurant for lunch and dinner. The food, wow the food, from degustation dinners to harbourside lunches, we ate and drank so much that when we rejoined the group for the 3rd week most everyone had to reduce their intake of wine and food.
We went to some places we had been before and many new ones. Everything was so well organised. Trish organised all the restaurants and Dave did the driving, managing to drop us off right outside most of the venues. Trish knew all the best shops wherever we went, our cases were bulging with new purchases by the end.
So if you are looking for a small group tour with superb accommodation, excellent food and drink and terrific experiences where you can just sit back relax and enjoy it, this is the trip for you."
