Provence Unpacked
Which Provence are you interested in – the glamour of the Cote d’Azur, the calmer Cote Bleue, ski resorts or olive orchards, lavender and hill-top villages or the wild call of the Camargue? Go To Provence shows you where to go in Provence.
Bouches du Rhone – urban chic


French Riviera – glamour, yachts and bling
The French Riviera (a.k.a. Cote d’Azur) is where millionaires head to in summer, from Monte Carlo to Cannes to St Tropez all along the beautiful coast where it seems to be permanently sunny. Of course you don’t have to have your own yacht to join the fun, there is a Riviera vacation to fit every budget.




From Marseille to St Tropez
Heading west from St Tropez you get to a calmer coastline where the resorts are less glitzy and you don’t need a fistful of credit cards. There are lovely little beaches and coves near Le Lavandou, charming fishing villages like Cassis and Sanary sur Mer, the fabulous wine of Bandol, and the beautiful Porquerolles and the other islands of Hyeres.

The Luberon
The Luberon is for those who dream of spectacular countryside of vineyards and orchards, fascinating “perched” hill-top villages, outstanding natural produce, and the light of Van Gogh and Cezanne.
