Tomasz - Private Guide in Aix en Provence

Languages: English, French, Polish.

Hello and welcome!

If you’re here, it means you’re looking for a day trip in Provence. I hope you’ll find something that inspires you.

My name is Tom, and I’ve been living in the Aix-en-Provence and Marseille regions for 20 years.

From the moment I discovered the south of France, I knew it was “home”: the sun, the sea, the beautiful beaches, the picturesque countryside, the surprising and contrasting cities, the authentic villages… and of course, the delicious Mediterranean cuisine full of color, great wines, endless aperitifs… a true cultural blend. There’s a certain lightness and joy of life here.

I began my career in the luxury hotel industry, and after a few years, I moved from sales director to tourism manager for a local vineyard. That’s where I realized what I loved most about my work — sharing my knowledge of the region and spending quality time with people.

I decided to leave my full-time job and create my own business, one that aligns with my values and passions.

I love simplicity, nature, hiking, and spending time in beautiful, authentic places where I can relax and feel a true connection with the location.

The tours I offer are the same ones I would plan for my family and friends! My goal is not just to show you Provence, but to help you truly experience it. More than a guide, I see myself as a “creator of experiences.” I want to help you enjoy your day as a local would, not just as a tourist.

Beyond the must-see excursions, I aim to introduce you to the real Provence — sometimes off the beaten path — meeting passionate local producers who care deeply for their land and animals, and discovering breathtaking landscapes close to our meeting point. The less time you spend in the car, the more you can soak in the surrounding nature and atmosphere of this inspiring region. People here often say, “Not too fast in the morning, slowly in the afternoon,” and I believe that at least during vacation, it’s important to slow down.

I invite you to discover Provence with me!

Take a look at my tour options — I’ve prepared a few suggestions for you! But if you don’t find exactly what you’re looking for, just let me know. I’ll be happy to customize a day for you based on your interests and expectations.

See you soon,
Tom
