What to expect

Embark on a day tour of Provence, beginning with a visit to Roussillon. This quintessential French village is renowned for its striking red and yellow ochre cliffs and extraordinary natural landscape. On Thursdays, you'll have the chance to experience an open-air Provençal market - a must-do when in Provence!

The tour will then take you to a panoramic photo stop overlooking Gordes, a Provençal village perched high in the Luberon. Recognised as one of "the most beautiful villages in France", it's a sight not to be missed. Following this, you'll have free time for lunch in the charming village of Fontaine de Vaucluse. Here, seize the opportunity to explore and discover the source of the Sorgue River, a uniquely natural and mysterious location.

Post-lunch, your journey continues to the Pont du Gard. Discover this well-preserved Roman aqueduct, dating back to the 1st century and listed by UNESCO. The next stop is Les Baux de Provence, a celebrated Provencal village perched atop a rock at 245 meters high. Take some time to explore the medieval village, admire the beautiful 16th-century houses and visit the St Vincent Church.

Finally, on the return journey to Avignon, your guide will take you through Saint Rémy de Provence. Enjoy a leisurely stroll through the city centre before concluding your memorable day tour in the heart of Avignon.
