Plan your trip to Provence & the French Riviera

Last update on Apr 14, 2026

Planning a trip to Provence is the question millions of travelers from around the world ask themselves every year. And for good reason: the region offers a rare diversity. In just a few days, you can alternate between the Verdon Gorge and the Calanques of Cassis, between a hilltop village in the Luberon and the Palais des Papes in Avignon, between the lavender fields of Vaucluse and the seaside of the French Riviera.

Gordes, perle de la Provence.

Provence is a vast region, with very diverse landscapes and atmospheres. The Bouches-du-Rhône, Vaucluse, Var, and Alpes-de-Haute-Provence: each department has its own character, must-see attractions, and pace. A well-planned road trip can cover it all. But be careful: trying to see everything in a week is the surest way to miss out on the real experience.

This section of the site is here to help you create an itinerary that suits you, at the right time of year, with practical tips to make the most of every stop.
