Program & Itinerary
Discover the Luberon Villages
The Luberon is one of Provence’s most celebrated regions, known for rolling vineyards, olive groves, lavender fields, and hilltop villages built from warm limestone. Located within the Luberon Regional Natural Park, the area preserves traditional Provençal landscapes and rural heritage.
This full-day tour explores two of the region’s most emblematic villages, each offering a different perspective on Provençal life.
Gordes — Iconic Hilltop Village
Perched dramatically above the valley, Gordes is famous for its stone houses, panoramic viewpoints, and historic castle. Often ranked among Les Plus Beaux Villages de France, its architecture blends harmoniously with the surrounding countryside, making it one of Provence’s most photographed locations.
Lourmarin — Provençal Lifestyle
At the southern edge of the Luberon, Lourmarin offers a lively and welcoming atmosphere. Shaded squares, artisan boutiques, and cafés invite visitors to slow down and experience everyday Provençal life. Its Renaissance château and artistic heritage reflect the cultural richness of the region.
Olive Oil Heritage or Calisson Tradition
From Monday to Saturday, the tour includes a visit to Bastide du Laval, a traditional olive oil estate where guests discover olive cultivation, production techniques, and the importance of olive oil in Mediterranean cuisine, followed by tastings.
On Sundays, when the mill is closed, the experience instead includes entry to the Calisson Museum of Roi René in Aix-en-Provence, dedicated to the region’s iconic almond-based sweet and its centuries-old confectionery tradition.
A Relaxed Small-Group Experience
Limited to eight guests, the tour allows time to explore at a comfortable pace while benefiting from insights shared by an expert driver-guide. Travel takes place in a premium air-conditioned Mercedes minivan operated by Ophorus, specialists in small-group tours across France since 2005.
