Benjamin Reilly best tour guide in aix

As a guide, teacher and world traveler, I believe that learning about new cultures, getting out of our comfort zone, and creating new character building experiences can change the course of our life.

That’s why I offer experiences in Provence that give travellers the option to explore the best the region has to offer, brought to you by a local.

Let’s go on an Aix-Ben-ture together and I promose to show you why so many fall in love with Provence.

The Aix-traordinary Tour

Two and a half hours · Private or small group · From €110 per person

A considered introduction to Aix — its architecture, its water, its long habit of quiet wealth. We walk the old town at an unhurried pace: the hôtels particuliers behind their carriage doors, the fountains that shaped where the city grew, the Cours Mirabeau as it was intended to be understood.

Groups are kept small by design. Most guests find they spend the remainder of their stay seeing the city differently.

What do people say about us?

Our experience with Benjamin and his tour was excellent. We walked the city of Aix and through Benjamins deep knowledge we gleaned much insight into its history. Ben is personable and easy to know. He has a terrific sense of humor. Ben welcomes questions and shares his insight with enthusiasm. Aix-en-Provence is a beautiful historic city and you do not want to miss the opportunity to experience it through the eyes of an expert. Hire this guide, you will not regret it.

In our 10 days in France this was one of the biggest highlights of our experience. We went with an adorable guide dog to forge for truffles at two brothers' family truffle farm. One of the brothers who is a master chef then treated us a multi-course meal including our fresh finds. Exceptional and having eating at many Michelin-starred restaurants over the years this easily ranked with the best thanks to the serene environment, personalized and heartfelt service and of course the company of our guide Benjamin. He is a wealth of information and after lunch took us on a tour of a charming nearby town with a deep and rich history that he brought to life for us. Exceptional experience and can't possibly recommend it more highly.

Perfect walking tour of Aix en Provence. This is a great guide. Speaks English knows the city and sooo much of its history. We always take a walking tour of cities we visit and he was one of the best. Knowledgeable and entertaining. It was off season in march and my wife and I were the only ones on the tour but he did not cut any corners. He answered tons of questions and took great pictures of us. Highly recommend !

Phenomenal history of the area with expert knowledge of the history of beautiful Aix-En-Provance. We feel like we understand the history as well as great tour of local shops and stops and feel much more acquainted with the area. We feel we could walk and talk with Benjamin for days and continue to learn more. We saw where Cezanne grew up and much of his life here in Provance.

I had such a hard time deciding between the Historical City Walking Tour and the Market Walking Tour, ultimately deciding on the historical tour. About a week before, Ivanna reached out to ask if I was okay to start the tour earlier due to the forecast of extreme heat and combining the historical and market tours. I was so happy to say yes because it gave me the best of both worlds! Ivanna was friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly thoughtful. She sent a Google Maps pin for the meeting point, used a small picture book to help us visualize what Aix en Provence looked like in the past, and even included a fun trivia game in the cathedral. She answered all of my questions and shared recommendations for places to eat and explore. When another tour I had booked was canceled because of the heat, I ended up booking a train to Avignon. When she found out, she took the time to suggest what I should see there too. Our walking tour ended with a Polaroid photo at the Rotonde Fountain, which was such a thoughtful and personal souvenir she gave us with. I highly recommend Ivanna and would happily book another tour with her if I am ever back in Aix en Provence!

Ivanna was a wonderful guide for our visit to Aix-en-Provence. She was very knowledgeable and effective at pointing out details that I’m sure we would have missed without her. We would recommend her to anyone visiting this region of France.

This tour was fantastic. Although my husband and I had already spent a few days wandering around Aix En Provence, we couldn't put the fountains and beautiful architecture into context. Then the area came alive for us as Ivanna guided us through the same areas, giving us the history as well as many interesting anecdotes about the area and its inhabitants. The time flew by, and we agree that we were extremely fortunate to have gotten Ivanna as our guide.
