Luberon, Cassis & Marseille Private Tour

Embark on a private tour that captures the very soul of Provence, blending gastronomic delights, stunning landscapes, and timeless Luberon villages with coastal beauty and the historic treasures of Marseille. This carefully curated experience invites you to savor the region’s finest flavors, explore storied villages, and discover the art of Provençal living, all tailored to the tastes of the discerning traveler.

A Flavorsome Start in Aix-en-Provence

Your day begins at the street food markets of Aix-en-Provence, where vibrant stalls overflow with the season’s best. From locally cured olives to artisanal cheeses and fragrant lavender honey, this lively market is a sensory introduction to Provence’s culinary artistry.

Wine & Views at Puyloubier

Leaving the city behind, you’ll travel through the picturesque Sainte-Victoire National Park, immortalized by Paul Cézanne. Arrive in Puyloubier, where a visit to two exceptional wineries offers private tastings of locally produced wines, paired with a relaxed Provençal lunch. Against the backdrop of vineyard-draped hills, you’ll enjoy wines that express the unique terroir of Provence, rich in sun and tradition.

The Timeless Villages of the Luberon

The afternoon brings a scenic drive through the Luberon, where the hilltop villages of Lourmarin, Cucuron, and Bonnieux each tell their own story. Wander through stone-paved lanes, discover art galleries and hidden courtyards, and experience the authentic rhythm of Provençal life.

In Roussillon, stroll the famous Ochre Trail, where dramatic orange cliffs and canyon landscapes provide a striking contrast to the surrounding lavender fields and vineyards.

Cassis: Coastal Beauty & Bandol Wines

From the heart of Provence to the Mediterranean coast, the next stop is Cassis, a quintessential French Riviera gem. Set sail on a private boat trip through the Calanques National Park, where limestone cliffs plunge into turquoise waters, creating secluded coves and hidden beaches accessible only by boat.

Back onshore, enjoy a Bandol wine tasting—famed for its bold reds and elegant rosés—at a renowned coastal winery that captures the spirit of the Provençal coastline in every glass.

Marseille: A Grand Finale of History & Heritage

Your journey concludes in Marseille, the vibrant heart of southern France. Visit the Notre-Dame de la Garde Basilica, perched high above the city with panoramic views of the harbor and surrounding coast. A walking tour of the old town reveals hidden squares, colorful facades, and a visit to a traditional soap producer, where savon de Marseille is still crafted using centuries-old techniques.
