“My friends & I enjoyed this tour. Were a bit surprised that we had to pay extra nominal entrance fee at Roman theater in Orange. Guide Natalie was very pleasant & accommodating. Her speech is fast so difficult to understand all her — we assume — excellent commentary. Her microphone did not work for first part of tour so those in back missed her remarks. Appreciated her footstool for easier access in/out of van. Was great to visit Pont du Gard at cooler end of day.”
