Your vacation in Provence is not complete without
one of our exciting Provence private day tours.
This delightful Provence day trip is a treat
for the senses. Your private guided tour begins
with a trip to Les Baux de Provence, famous
for its medieval hilltop castle and village
carved right out of the cliff face. Cars are
banned from the steep, winding streets, so
you will have a brisk walk up the hill to the
sights.
Next, your guided tour of the Provence countryside
will continue to a goat-breeding farm, where
you will sample several creamy goat cheeses.
The "Banon" is the king of Provençal
cheeses. Wrapped in chestnut leaves, this goat
cheese has the AOC label (Appellation of Controlled
Origin) as well as the "Dieulefit" or
the "Tomme d'Arles." As you tour
the facility, your guide will explain the curing
process, which follows different methods and
produces various flavors depending on the region.
After lunch, your private tour in Provence will continue to Gordes,
a beautiful medieval village with stone houses
perched on the hillside, and Roussillon, known
for rich ochre deposits that paint the landscape
various shades of reddish-orange. This area
is right on the Lavender Trail, transformed
with fragrant purple blossoms in July and August.
Your private guided tour will finish with a
wine toast in a famous "Côtes du Luberon" winery.
