Summer in Aix-en-Provence Excursions

While you’re in Aix en Provence, you will have the opportunity to take a couple of day excursions to explore some of the fabulous sights France has to offer. Here are just a couple of the places you may be visiting:

St. Remy
Situated in the heart of the Alpilles, there is a reason Saint Remy was a favorite spot of artists such as Vincent Van Gogh. Surrounded by picturesque valleys, ancient cobblestone streets, rolling fields and the ruins of several civilizations, there is something for everyone to be awed by in this charming provincial town.

Les Baux
Set atop a rocky spur in the heart of the Alpilles Mountains, Les Baux is crowned by a ruined castle and features a breathtaking view of the plains below. As one of the most picturesque tourist villages in France, Les Baux will take you on an unforgettable journey into the past.

Lourmarin
Lourmarin is a bustling Mediterranean village nestled among olive groves, vineyards and almond trees. Home to 15th and 16th century castles as well as provincial churches and traditional French farmers markets, Lourmarin is the perfect place to absorb some spectacular sunshine and culture.
