Tour Description

The tour begins with pickup at Marseille cruise port. You will then travel through the Luberon Regional Natural Park, experiencing some of Provence’s most iconic villages.

Your first stop is Lourmarin, recognized as one of 'the most beautiful villages in France,' famous for its Renaissance castle and charming streets. You will have free time to explore here.

Next, visit Bonnieux, a classic Provençal village crowned by a 12th-century church and surrounded by century-old cedars, offering expansive views of the Luberon.

Then, you will arrive at Roussillon, a village built on an ochre quarry cliff, where the striking natural pigments create a palette of orange, red, and brown hues on the landscape and buildings.

The final stop is a photo opportunity at Gordes, a cliffside village noted for its dramatic setting and historic architecture before returning to Marseille cruise port.

Note that the visit order may change. On Thursdays, the itinerary is adjusted to visit Gordes first for photos, followed by free time at the Roussillon market, then Bonnieux, and finishing in Lourmarin.
