7-Day Italy and South France Loop Tour: Lucerne, Milan, Venice, Rome, Florence, Monaco, Cannes, Paris

Our guide in Rome was amazing—so knowledgeable and engaging. He answered every question, kept the group organized, and made history come alive. The way he pointed out little details at the Trevi Fountain was unforgettable.

7-Day Southern Adventure Loop Tour from Paris/Lucerne: Italy, Switzerland, France, Vatican City, Monaco

Loved how flexible this tour is. I joined in Paris and added a pre-hotel to get the free airport transfer — totally worth it. The app was easy to use, and all the itinerary details were exactly what we experienced on the road. No surprise costs, which I really appreciated.

14-Day Western & Southern Europe from Paris: Luxembourg, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Lucerne, Venice, Florence | Cologne Cathedral | Louvre Museum | Leaning Tower of Pisa

Highly recommend!

This tour was everything we hoped for and more! The trip is packed with must-see landmarks like the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and the time in Florence made us fall in love with the city. The itinerary was well-balanced, with just enough free time to explore on our own. We also loved visiting the charming little towns on the way, like Luxembourg and Frankfurt. It was an epic European adventure that we’ll remember forever.

FAQs about Provence Tours

When is the lavender season in Provence and where are the best fields to visit?

Lavender in Provence typically blooms from mid-June to late July, with peak colors in early July. For the most iconic fields, visit Valensole Plateau for vast lavender expanses. The Sénanque Abbey near Gordes also offers stunning photo opportunities, especially at sunrise. Plan early morning visits to avoid crowds and midday heat.

What’s the best way to get from Marseille Provence Airport (MRS) to Aix-en-Provence?

The fastest way is the Livenza shuttle bus, running every 15-30 minutes, taking 25 minutes to Aix-centre (€8 one-way). Alternatively, a taxi costs around €40–€50. Renting a car is ideal for exploring rural Provence, with major rental desks at the airport arrivals hall.

Is the Provence Pass worth it for tourists visiting museums and attractions?

Yes, the ProvencePass offers discounted or free entry to over 30 sites, including the Palais des Papes in Avignon and Roman Theatre in Orange. Ideal for travelers visiting 3+ attractions; available in 3, 5, or 7-day options. Purchase online or at tourist offices to maximize savings and skip some ticket lines.

What should I pack for summer travel in Provence considering the weather?

Pack lightweight clothing, a wide-brimmed hat, and strong sunscreen - Provence has intense sun and summer temperatures reaching 35°C. Include a light jacket for cool evenings, especially in higher elevations. Comfortable walking shoes are essential for cobblestone streets and hillside villages. Don’t forget insect repellent for evening outings.
