Enjoy guided walks through two beautiful Provençal villages and lunch in a relaxing countryside setting. 

Enjoy the beautiful Provençal scenery as you pass through the picturesque village of Lourmarin, on your way to quaint Roussillon. Considered one of France’s most beautiful villages, Roussillon stands on the highest hill between the Coulon valley and the Vaucluse plateau.

Riding through the striking ochre-hued hills, you’ll arrive in the magical village of Roussillon. Your guided walk there will take you through the village’s vibrant eye-catching colours. Then you’ll explore the interesting ochre quarries where this famous pigment was quarried from the 18th to the 20th century. Afterwards, you’ll have some free time to explore.

Then it’s just a short ride to a local restaurant for a delicious lunch in the countryside.

Another short ride will take you to Gordes – a spectacular sight that rises in scenic tiers on the Vaucluse Plateau. As you walk through the twisting, vaulted alleyways, you can soak up the atmosphere of this charming Provençal village. And the panoramic views of the surrounding countryside are spectacular. You’ll also have some more free time to explore.
