SEGRET founded the company
TRANSFERTS SERVICE - ALENA TOURS, 20 years ago :
As far as I remember, I have
always wanted to work in the contact with tourists. Since
I am 16, I have been working as a guide in castles, villages,
towns, on board barges.... all over France. For that, I have
studied tourism, languages (English and Spanish), and eventually
followed a specific course to obtain my Licence of Professional
Guide.
I am fond of architecture,
history, nature, hiking, biking and photography.
Today, I work with a little
team of driver-guides, all of them sharing the same passion,
and dedicated to their job.
We will be particularly happy
to welcome you in this marvelous region that we know very
well, drive you along the most scenic roads, explain you the
local history and traditions and share our secrets and favourite
addresses with you !
Provence has a very strong
identity and differs from any other areas of France. It seems
important to us to make our guests discover it, not only by
its heritage but also by its craftsmen, its cuisine and all
the other aspects that make it so special and unique. This
is the reason why our day tours usually include wine
or olive oil tastings and typical lunches, among other activities.
It is useless to try to see the whole region in one day as
you would need a month ! Our aim is that you have a good time
and appreciate a bit of all what Provence has to offer.
We also
work with other guides speaking italian, german, spanish,
japanese, portuguese, chinese and russian.
After 20 years of experience,
we can benefit from a good network of reliable people.
"We pride ourselves
to have a human size company, where each demand is
studied carefully. If our mission is first to drive you and
to guide you, we will also be happy to advise you and to help
you preparing your journey in Provence, whichever it is for
a professional or a touristic purpose. We can be reached 7
days a week (as much as the network allows us to do so) and
will always listen to your specific requests"
