In the South of France, between the azure blue of the Mediterranean and soaring French Alps, lies a land of such beauty that writers and painters have flocked here for centuries. A place of ancient history and timeless traditions, here you'll experience wonderfully preserved Roman architecture, centuries-old monasteries, palaces and castles. Stroll along the winding cobblestone lanes of the famous perched villages, explore the local galleries, museums, and artists' workshops, and pick out the perfect Provençal souvenirs to take home. The fruit and vegetable markets are brimming with the taste and smell of the famous local cuisine... creamy cheeses, an astounding choice of olives, and endless varieties of wine. The memories of lavender fields, sprawling vineyards and stunning scenery will remain with you forever.

How to get there...
We recommend that you fly into Marseille airport. Another option would be to fly to Paris and take the fast (TGV) train to Avignon TGV station which takes approximately three hours. We can pick you up and drop you off in either location.
