Laurie Nicolas – Guide conférencière
Smiles, good humor and heritage, does that tempt you?
So come (re)discover the villages of South Ardèche, with your feet on the cobblestones and your eyes on the church towers! I invite you on a journey through time and space from the Middle Ages to the present day.
Revamped guided tours that will make you love heritage and history. Always presented from a unique perspective, my tours delight young visitors, engage adults, and amaze the more mature among us!
Put on your comfortable sneakers, turn off your phones and head out onto the cobbled streets of the prettiest Ardèche villages.
From the Cité des Montlaur in the footsteps of a strange friend, to Labeaume waiting for a mysterious visitor, passing through the territory of the silver mines of Val de Ligne, the life of the inhabitants of Vivarais will (almost) no longer hold any secrets for you.
Not all of my tours are accessible to people with reduced mobility or strollers, and this is only due to the layout of the villages and their mostly medieval alleyways. Whenever possible, I try to design the most accessible routes possible; it's not an easy task, so please forgive our ancestors!
Dogs are welcome, kept on a leash (owners will provide small bags for unexpected gifts) and our four-legged friends will always stay outside of religious buildings that we may enter.
See you soon!
In the case of guided tours, particular attention is paid to carpooling when the tour is not carried out by coach or minibus.
A resident of Ardèche by adoption and by heart for 13 years, guiding and tourism are my second life. I spent 12 years of the first part of my professional life on the roads of France, selling snow chains, office supplies, and tires!
The history and heritage of Ardèche caught my attention 13 years ago and made me what I am today, an original and atypical guide who seeks to offer you moments of escape and bubbles outside of your daily life.
