(7 Days - Departs Daily on a Private Basis) Avignon, Luberon Valley, Cote d'Azur
This private luxury tour features the highlights of the South of France, including atmospheric Provencal villages, beautiful towns overlooking the sea along the Cote d’Azur, local food and antiques markets, important historic sites, outstanding art collections, and two of our favorite luxury hotels in the France.
Begin with a private tour of Avignon, including the wonderful main market, the antiques district, and historic attractions such as the Palais des Papes, an imposing fortress-palace from which renegade cardinals once challenged the Vatican.
Continue to the Luberon Valley and stay at a luxurious farmhouse hotel set among vineyards outside the village of Menerbes. During private touring, explore the surrounding countryside—some of the most picturesque in Provence—and visit markets, cultural sites and hill towns such as Bonnieux, Lacoste, Gordes, Roussillon, Lourmarin and L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue.
Next, transfer to the Cote d’Azur for three nights at a luxurious resort hotel overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. Enjoy a day with your own private driver-guide at your disposal to tour the endlessly fascinating attractions and towns in the surrounding region.
