In the morning, meet your guide at Marseille’s Old Port and board a comfortable minivan for your full-day tour. As you make the drive north to Aix-en-Provence, learn a bit about the chic university town with ancient Roman roots.
You’ll have time in Aix to independently explore.

Have a leisurely lunch (own expense) before reconvening with your group for the next leg of the excursion – a journey through Provence’s lavender country.
Drink in the signature beauty of the Valensole Plateau as you course through the painted hills. In Valensole – a Latin-based word meaning ‘valley of the sun’ – the Mediterranean climate combines with fertile earth to create a perfect environment for growing lavender and almond trees. Breathe in the perfumed breeze as you snap photos and wander through the streets of Valensole village, a lovely hillside town where you can purchase bursting bouquets of lavender or some essential oils.
Your Provençal tour ends with a relaxing ride back to your departure point in Marseille.
