Fly above the Provence region in a private plane

About this tour

Take the controls (figuratively) on a tailored private flight across Provence with a passionate local pilot. Based from either Aix-les-Milles or Salon-Eyguières airfield, you'll chart the route together before taking off for up to an hour aloft, seeing lavender fields and hilltop villages shrink beneath you. Your pilot covers fuel and operational costs directly—there's no markup. Flights fit your morning or afternoon availability between 9am and 5pm, subject to aircraft and pilot scheduling.

Highlights

• Plan your flight path directly with the pilot beforehand
• One hour airborne over Provence's countryside and villages
• Depart from working airfields, not tourist hubs
• Pilot headset included for clear communication
• Access to private airclub facilities

What to expect

You'll meet your matched pilot at the airfield—either Aix-les-Milles or Salon-Eyguières, depending on availability. After a safety briefing and route discussion, you'll board a small single- or twin-engine aircraft for an hour's flight. The experience is genuine general aviation, not a scenic tour operation: you'll see the landscape unfold in real time, hear the engine, feel the aircraft bank. Your pilot will answer questions about the region and flying itself. Landing back at base, you're free to go; there's no extended clubhouse experience beyond a quick debrief.

Good to know

Arrange your own transport to the airfield—public options exist nearby. Book a morning or afternoon slot and confirm flexible dates after purchase. Passengers over 95kg or with cardiovascular concerns should enquire first or consult a doctor. Weather may force rescheduling with full refund. You'll need to provide full name, date of birth, weight, and availability for each passenger at booking.
