About this tour
Spend a day exploring Provence's best with a local guide who knows the region inside out. This eight-hour tour takes you through the hilltop charm of Aix-en-Provence and down to the seaside village of Cassis, stopping for wine tastings and market visits along the way. You'll get a genuine sense of Provençal life—its food culture, landscapes, and rhythm—rather than rushing through postcard views.

What to expect
Your guide picks you up and drives through Provençal countryside to Aix, where you'll explore on foot—markets burst with produce, fountains dot the squares, and architecture spans centuries. You'll taste wines at a vineyard, learning how the region's soil and climate shape what's in your glass. Then it's down to Cassis, a working fishing village where boats still bob in the harbour. You'll have time to walk around, peek at the beaches, and soak in the slower pace of coastal life. Lunch isn't included, but your guide will point you towards proper local spots.
Good to know
Wear comfortable walking shoes for Aix's old streets. Bring water and sun protection. The tour suits all fitness levels but involves moderate walking through villages. Children under three can sit on a lap; child seats are available on request.
