Meet a friendly guide in Aix-en-Provence and prepare for a scenic drive through the splendid landscapes of the Regional Natural Park of Luberon. This afternoon excursion offers an excellent overview of Luberon's highlights.
The first essential stop on your journey is Lourmarin, recognised as one of "the most beautiful villages in France" and renowned for its Renaissance castle. Take advantage of some leisure time to explore this charming village. Following Lourmarin, your tour continues with a photo opportunity in Bonnieux. This quintessential Provençal village is crowned by a 12th-century church encircled by age-old cedars, offering a magnificent view of Luberon. Next, visit the village of Roussillon, perched high atop the cliff of an ancient ochre quarry. Evoking a painter's palette, Rousillon is a magical place where combinations of oxides create an endless variety of orange, brown, and red hues in both the landscapes and houses.
Your final stop of the afternoon is Gordes, a remarkable village erected on a cliff. The fortified castle and church tower over the typical houses of the village, which were constructed using stones from the rock upon which they stand. Luberon and its exquisite villages are the ideal location to spend an afternoon in Provence. At the conclusion of the tour, you'll be transported back to Aix-en-Provence.
