They changed our reservation, but they made up for it.

Even though we had reserved/ confirmed a week in advance, the company chosen for our Luberon tour only let us know the afternoon before our tour that it had to be changed. To make up for this, they send a wonderful guide to give us a private tour on a makeup day of our choosing.

Disruptions

The meeting place given was wrong, so after initial misunderstandings we left half an hour later. We didn't go to all the places indicated, so we could take another tour at a lower price. By guide we mean the driver who briefly explains what you see from the window. In any case, the bus is comfortable and the driver is nice and company. But € 70 for this package is not eligible. And we came back an hour earlier than expected.
