Provence 2025 & 2026
„For me, Provence is a place where the senses blossom: the scent of lavender, the colours of the sunsets and the warmth of the people are unforgettable. I particularly like the fact that every round trip through Provence leaves room for individual discoveries – be it a small café on the market square or a hidden monastery in the hills. Once you’ve been here, you’ll want to return again and again.
Start your Provence round trip with a hire car or directly from your own front door as a self-drive round trip. We can plan the perfect route for you for both options.”

From Aix en Provence to Nice enjoy culture
Provence is a cultural kaleidoscope – characterised by Roman heritage, medieval towns and a light that has inspired artists for centuries. In Arles and Orange, monumental amphitheatres bear witness to the Roman past, while Avignon’s imposing papal palace is a reminder of the time when the city was the centre of the Catholic world.
If you stroll through the alleyways of Aix-en-Provence or Saint-Rémy, you can feel the spirit of Cézanne and Van Gogh, who created their works here. Die Region lebt aber auch heute – mit Musikfestivals, Kunstausstellungen und einem regen Kunsthandwerk, das von Keramik bis zu handbedruckten Stoffen reicht. A round trip offers the opportunity to discover this diversity step by step – each stop tells a different story.
The multifaceted nature of Provence
Cypress avenues, lavender fields, vineyards and limestone cliffs – the landscapes of Provence are rich in contrast and impressive. The high plateau of Valensole is particularly impressive when the lavender is in bloom: when the purple fields stretch as far as the horizon, there is a beguiling scent in the air. In the Verdon gorges, a dramatic world of turquoise-coloured water and rugged rock faces opens up – ideal for easy hikes or a leisurely boat tour. The Luberon mountains, on the other hand, are gentler, with dreamy villages on hilltops and olive groves that shimmer silver in the sunlight. The Camargue in the south – with its flamingos, white horses and black bulls – rounds off the nature experience. Those who get involved with the landscape will discover a Provence that is far more than a postcard idyll.
Provence roundtrip Pure pleasure!
On a round trip through Provence, the cuisine of southern France unfolds in all its flavours and colours. Markets under plane trees, small delicatessen shops in historic old towns and quaint bistros on the village square – if you get involved with the region, you will discover a food culture that is deeply rooted in the landscape. Provençal cuisine thrives on simplicity: sun-ripened vegetables, high-quality olive oil, aromatic herbs such as thyme and rosemary. The variety is particularly impressive: while freshly caught fish plays the main role on the coast, lamb dishes, game and ratatouille dominate inland. In the wine regions around Châteauneuf-du-Pape or Gigondas, winegrowers invite you to tastings – often in a personalised atmosphere, with a view of vines lost in the sun.
The Provence region authentic and lively
Artisans open their doors in small workshops – for example soap makers in Marseille or potters in the Luberon. For many travellers, a visit to an olive oil mill during harvest time or an early breakfast at the market in L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue is unforgettable. Such encounters bring closeness and authenticity – in the spirit of a personalised journey of discovery.
