Famous for vineyards, lavender, sleepy hilltop towns, and art & history, Provence is a diverse region within sunny Southern France. With a relaxed, charming allure, Provence entices you in with long lazy lunches, exceptional wines, and bright blue skies, not to mention the Luberon - three mountain ranges proudly displaying marvellous hilltops with unspoiled medieval villages.

Your voyage begins in Avignon, a small city full of life and the gateway to Provence. The historic centre is home to the immense Gothic architecture of the Pope's Palace along with the Saint Benezet Bridge, listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The produce market here is not to be missed with local and national delicacies beautifully presented, waiting to be sampled. Spend your evenings roaming alongside the Rhone River, choosing from one of the many diverse dining experiences.

Embark on a leisurely e-bike ride to the historic Chateau La Nerthe winery where an exceptional local tasting awaits. This is the perfect introduction to Provencal wines, sampled just before you venture further into wine country and onto your next destination of Gigondas. Surrounded by more than 1,250 hectares of vineyards, this tiny village promises escapism from everyday life.

Your accommodation in Gigondas proudly boasts an excellent gourmet restaurant. Tuck into an elegant meal on the sun-dappled patio with breath-taking views of the limestone peaks around you - certainly one of those moments that you'll never forget. With plenty of nature walks available, we recommend exploring outside of the village before returning to enjoy your pre-arranged wine tasting; a must do whilst in Gigondas.

Leaving Gigondas behind, you arrive in one of the seven most beautiful villages in France, Gordes. Take your time getting lost amongst the labyrinth of narrow, cobblestone streets, stopping at charming boutiques and tempting eateries as you explore. With must-see churches and its dominating castle, Gordes deserves a moment to discover its beauty at your own pace. We recommend visiting the nearby village Fontaine de Vaucluse from where we can prearrange canoeing down the River Sorgue; a fantastic way to see Provence from another perspective.

Your Provencal Tour comes to an end with one last night in Avignon. Enjoy the fine cuisine and historical sites along the Rhone River before waving goodbye with fond memories of Provence.
