The Provence... Perfectly summer 2016 tours are run by Claire de la Varre and Liz Priestley, two Brits who live in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.

"We met when our daughters became friends in high school. We discovered a mutual love of France and organized and led our first tour, a women's group, to Provence in 2010. In 2016 we are expanding to include Tuscany. We returned to Provence in 2012, 2013, and 2015. Using the experience gained from those trips, we continue to develop what we feel is the perfect vacation: a personalized, small-group setting in a charming old farmhouse with modern comforts, and sunny days filled with a comfortable mix of sight-seeing, fabulous food and wine, and great company."

Liz Priestley "I grew up in England and attended the University of Montpellier, France. I moved to the United States and received my degree in Broadcast Journalism from UNC-Chapel Hill. After a successful career in TV News, I ran my own photography studio, shared a leadership business with my husband, Peter, and currently own a horse farm in Chapel Hill. I am a yoga instructor, hypnotist and wellness coach. Travel is my passion and introducing others to the delights of Provence, and now Tuscany, is one of my greatest joys. "
Claire de la Varre "I was born and grew up in Scotland, and have lived in North Carolina for 20 years. I am a hypnotist, hypnosis instructor, and adjunct assistant professor at UNC School of Dentistry. I really enjoy the opportunity to lead the Provence tours each summer, especially getting to know all of our guests and share my love of the region with them. I am very excited about the 2016 Tuscany tour as well. "
