Mary Magdalene was close to Jesus and the Virgin Mary. Expelled from Palestine at the beginning of the 1st century, she arrived in Provence by sea in a small boat. She dedicated her life to carrying the voice of Jesus through Provence, then she retired to the cave of the Massif de la Sainte Baume, where she lived in Hermite the last 30 years of her life. Whether you are a Pilgrim, or simply fascinated by the incredible history of Saint Mary Magdalene, I suggest you live a journey into the past by discovering the cave.

Highlights of Provence in One Day

Gina_G, Sep 2026

A tour you won’t want to miss

If we could give Eric more than five stars, we absolutely would. Our Highlight of Provence tour with Eric was genuinely one of the best experiences of our entire honeymoon — and without question the best tour we have ever taken anywhere. From the moment we met him, Eric was warm, welcoming, hilarious, incredibly knowledgeable, and just an absolute joy to spend the day with. He has that rare ability to make a tour feel completely effortless and personal rather than scripted. We learned so much about Provence, its history, culture, food, villages, and everyday life, but somehow it never felt like we were being “taught” — it felt like exploring this beautiful part of France with an incredibly knowledgeable friend. Every stop was thoughtfully chosen, the scenery was breathtaking, and Eric made the entire experience so much fun. He knew exactly where to take us, what little details to point out, and how to make each place feel special. We laughed constantly, never felt rushed, and truly enjoyed every minute of the day. His passion for Provence is contagious, and you can tell how much he genuinely cares about giving his guests an unforgettable experience. We have done many tours throughout our travels, including several during our honeymoon, and nothing has compared to this one. It was the perfect mix of sightseeing, history, local culture, beautiful scenery, and just having an amazing time. We walked away feeling like we had experienced Provence in a way we never could have on our own. Eric, thank you for making such an important trip even more memorable. This tour became one of the absolute highlights of our honeymoon, and it is a day we will talk about for years to come. If you are visiting Provence, book a tour with Eric. Do not hesitate. He is truly exceptional, and this experience is worth every single penny. We could not recommend him more highly!

Awesome day!

We started with a wine tasting of Châteauneuf du Pape wines, and visited domains. The guide, I can't remember her name!, was very knowledgeable on wines, terroir, winemaking... It was very informative. In the afternoon, we started with Roussillon, then Pont Julien, Lacoste, and finished with Gordes which was absolutely gorgeous in the light at the end of the day. We got a lot of cultural and historical information.

This tour guide deserves 10 stars! When our train was delayed, she went above and beyond by picking us up right at the station. It was an incredibly hot day, but she never lost her enthusiasm.

This was the best tour I've ever taken! Célestine is a wonderful guide, she is extremely knowledgeable and very warm, caring and helpful. Everyone on our tour had an exceptional day. The lavender fields were beautiful and the time we spent in the lovely village of Moustiers-Sainte-Marie was a highlight for me.

Luberon Market & Villages Day Trip from Aix-en-Provence

Peter_a, Apr 2026

Magical views.

We travelled with Emmanuel to 4 hilltop villages - Gordes, Roussillion , Lourmarin and Ansouis. What a fantastic experience. We walked around the villages ourselves which was fine - 90 minutes each in the first two which were the biggest and busiest and then 45 minutes each in the other two. Emmanuel advised us what to look for and at in each village. His problem was parking the van because parking is difficult in these places- so he had to drop us off and then go a long way away and return to the designated pick up spot. He did a fantastic job and the day was brilliant - highly recommended.

Beautiful day in Cassis!

The perfect day in Cassis! Beautiful scenery (boat ride to see les Calanques) The town of Cassis is nice, restaurants are various and, in general, very good. A stop at the wineyard “Domaine de Pagnol” for nice wine tasting. Our guide ( Julien) was knowledgeable, professional and pleasant. I recommend.
