Great day with the family - Isabelle is a super friendly guide, she could tell us a lot about the surroundings, so we learned a lot and she chose a fantastic restaurant for us to eat lunch. It was the right amount of walking so that we were not completely exhausted in the evening. The village is really nice and absolutely worth a visit.

Saint-Guilhem le desert is an amazing village - The village is surrounded in a canyon on three sides and is on the Montpellier route of the Camino Saint-Jacques to Santiago Compostela. There are interesting places nearby such a Villeneuvette for 16th century history and Mourèze for hiking.

Discovering the Herault Valley - “The medieval and rustic getaway in the Herault Valley “with Belle Tourisme was certainly a high point of our recent trip to France. Our guide, Isabelle, was interesting, accommodating, and made sure that we had a memorable day. She provided a good choice of activities from cave exploring, to meeting local artisans and visiting their workshops. We were enthralled with St. Guillem Le Desert, and especially our visit to the “Village d’antan” where we spoke extensively with a creator of exquisite santons. We never could have had this opportunity of meeting with locals without Isabelle’s introduction. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

A truly wonderful day... - This day couldn't have been better except for the weather which is outside Isabelle's control! Isabelle is a wonderful guide, very knowlegable about the region, and careful to make sure everyone is enjoying the trip. We were picked up at a mutually agreed upon location and dropped off at the same place at the end of the day. We made small stops along the way to accommodate everyone's interests, had a lovely lunch in the ancient village of St. Guilhem-le-Desert. I can freely and with confidence recommend Isabelle for this trip - you will not be disappointed! ps, bring a camera!
