If you're looking for a place to relax and unwind, Provence is the perfect destination. From the south of France to the north, you'll find a huge variety of landscapes – from mountains and forests to cities and towns – all within easy reach from each other. You can also take advantage of many different activities like hiking or cycling through beautiful countryside.


If you've never travelled around Provence before then there are some things that you should know before planning your trip so that it goes as smoothly as possible:

Provence is a region of southern France that includes the towns of Avignon, Arles and Aix-en-Provence. The area is known for its fabled medieval architecture and rich culture—and with good reason!


If you want to relax in Provence, there’s no better place than Avignon. The city has been featured in many movies, including “The Da Vinci Code” and “Cyrano de Bergerac” which both starred Audrey Tautou (the French actress who plays Hélène de Pothier in “Amélie”). Even if you don’t know who she is (or remember seeing her on screen), she’ll instantly become your favorite French actress once you arrive at this charming town.


You can relax in Avignon after visiting the Pont du Gard, a Roman aqueduct that spans 492 feet across the river Gardon River. You can even take a boat tour through the aqueduct to get a bird's eye view of all its beauty!
