The Luberon Experience

Experience the Magic of Provence in the Luberon

 Luberon Experience is a one week immersion experience in this very special part of Provence, France. The tour offers a slower, more relaxing way of traveling, very unlike most group trips.

Groups include no more than ten people. You won’t be herded around on a big bus, switching hotels every couple of days, moving from place to place on a rapid schedule while one of us reels off facts and figures. We stay in one place for the entire week (a small and beautiful B&B hotel), and we focus our explorations within a 30 minute drive from that base. The schedule is interesting and varied, but also relaxed and flexible, including a “free day” when you can pursue activities of special interest.

Other travelers visit the Luberon-- you will experience it!

Kathy and Charley Wood  provide best the Luberon has to offer from their first hand experience. The tours including visits to provencial markets, wine tours and tastings,  cooking classes and tours of the charming villages of Bonnieux and Lacoste
