WHO IS THIS TOUR DESIGNED FOR?
Our Provence Tour is designed for travelers interested in discovering "authentic" Provence; that southern French paradise written about in books like A Year in Provence and A Good Year. No experience necessary...Our Provence Tours are designed to open the doors of this beautiful sun-drenched region to you. If you're interested in walking and exploring perched villages of Provence (in the Luberon, Alpilles and along the Mediterranean coast), shopping at regional markets like the locals do, learning about French culture in a fun and relaxing environment, participating in cooking classes and wine and cheese tasting and enjoying the opportunity to stay in an authentic Provencal village-town, don't miss out on this exclusive opportunity to travel with Off the Beaten Path.
"We are world travelers and this was our first time joining a tour group, and we had the time of our lives!! We really enjoyed learning about Provence with a knowledgeable guide who was fun, cheerful and helpful, as well as meeting the other trip guests. From the Luberon villages, both cooking classes to our hotel in Saint Remy de Provence, this was an exceptional and relaxing experience!" Loren and Althea Korte, Lexington, MA (Provence Tour)
