Escape the bustle of Aix and discover the landscapes and hilltop villages of the Luberon on a private half-day tour. Travel with an English-speaking guide in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle and enjoy an itinerary adapted to your interests.
Begin with convenient pick-up from your accommodation, train station or Airbnb in Aix-en-Provence. Meet your friendly driver-guide, review the options for the morning or afternoon, then sit back and relax as you head into the Provençal countryside.
The Luberon is dotted with perched villages and stone houses that seem untouched by time. Your guide will present a curated selection of the region’s most scenic villages and help you choose the ones that best match your preferences on the day of the tour.
Discover Gordes, one of Provence’s most famous hilltop villages, with its narrow, cobbled lanes and stone façades overlooking the valley. Visiting earlier or in the shoulder seasons lets you experience its viewpoints and streets in a quieter atmosphere.
Continue to Lourmarin, set among olive and almond groves. Explore its lanes lined with Renaissance to 19th‑century buildings, cafés and boutiques, and, if you wish, visit the historic château that inspired many writers and artists.
You can enhance your tour with an optional Provence wine tasting near Lourmarin, sampling local reds, whites and rosés. This add‑on is available on certain days and can only be combined with a visit to Lourmarin; it is not possible on Sundays.
Throughout the tour, your private guide adapts commentary and pacing to your interests, whether you prefer more time taking photos, browsing village shops or adding a wine stop. This flexible format makes for a relaxed, made‑to‑measure introduction to the Luberon from Aix-en-Provence.
Begin your private half-day tour with pickup from your accommodation or the Aix-en-Provence train station. Travel into the Luberon in an air-conditioned vehicle with your English-speaking driver-guide. Lourmarin features in all three itinerary options, providing an introduction to the region’s village life and Provençal character.
Explore Lourmarin, where historic buildings, cafés, and boutiques create an inviting village setting amid olive and almond groves. Discover its streets with commentary from your guide and enjoy the atmosphere that makes village visits a central part of this Luberon outing.
Continue according to your selected itinerary. The two-village option combines Lourmarin and Ansouis, while the wine-focused option pairs Lourmarin with one wine tasting. Alternatively, visit Lourmarin before discovering an olive oil mill with a tasting. These are three separate programs: either tasting experience replaces Ansouis, rather than being added to the two-village itinerary.
Each itinerary is designed for a four-hour private excursion, with a maximum of two stops: two villages, or one village and one tasting experience. The wine option operates on selected days and is unavailable on Sundays. After your chosen visits, return with your driver-guide to your original departure point in Aix-en-Provence.
Drink included: Olive Oil tasting or Wine tasting included if option selected
This private half-day tour suits couples, families, and friends who want to discover the Luberon from Aix-en-Provence without committing to a full-day excursion. Travelers interested in village atmosphere and architecture can choose Lourmarin and Ansouis, while those drawn to local flavors can combine Lourmarin with either a wine tasting or an olive oil mill visit and tasting. An English-speaking driver-guide and included pickup and return appeal to guests who prefer a personalized outing with transportation arranged.
