Half-day tour from Avignon to the Luberon villages
Make the most of your holidays in Provence with a sightseeing tour to discover some of the most beautiful villages in Provence. The Luberon is a small and perfectly preserved paradise. It is home to everything that one likes about Provence: dozens of small villages perched on hilltops, elegant cypress trees, lavender fields, vineyards and beautiful houses. Your A la Francaise is an expert in Provence and will ensure you have a truly memorable morning in the Luberon!
Starting in Avignon at 8.30am you'll join your guide and set off in our comfortable, upmarket minivan to the Luberon.
First stop on your trip will be a visit to Roussillon, a gorgeous and very typical French village in Provence famous for its red and yellow ochre cliffs and unusual natural landscape. Enjoy an open-air Provençal market on Thursdays, a must-do in Provence!
Next you will travel on to Gordes, a village perched high up in the Luberon, and labelled as one of "the most beautiful villages in France". It is famous for the dry stones with which the whole village is constructed. Your guide is a local expert and will take you to an incredible panoramic viewpoint for a photo stop where you will enjoy a wonderful view of the village.
The last village stop of the day is to Fontaine de Vaucluse where you can discover the mysterious source of the Sorgue River where it emerges from the ground.
After a morning falling in love with the Luberon your guide will take you back to Avignon where you will arrive at 2pm.
