Hi, my name is Richard. I have lived and worked in the UK, USA and Asia . On a year plus family trip around the world we took a lot of walking tours. It’s the best way to get to know a city and I got to know what makes a good walking tour - Small groups , so you can hear and ask questions. A guide who knows the facts , but also the stories , the characters , the fun, what it’s like to actually live in the city. I want you to know Aix and even want to live here , or at least come back and visit again !
