Meet your driver in Marseilles and embark on a journey into the countryside. Head east of Aix-en-Provence to reach Vallée de l’arc, an ideal location for vine cultivation. As you travel, take in the sights of Montagne St. Victoire to the north and the imposing Sainte-Baume to the south.
Your day begins with a tour of downtown Aix-en-Provence, where you can admire its fountains, mansions and the Saint Sauveur cathedral. Next, delve into the world of the painter Cézanne (optional) with a visit to his workshop (ticket not included, priced at 6.5 euros). This includes a trip through "the painters' field" and "Cézanne's portal". Feeling refreshed, continue your journey towards Château Lacoste. Here, you can appreciate various exhibitions of contemporary art, explore the vineyards and indulge in a wine tasting to round off your day beautifully.
Depending on timing, stops may be made in Aix (city centre), allowing you to browse shops offering local products such as Puyricard chocolate, olive oil, confectionery, and lavender.
