Aix-En-Provence iteniary

This is my schedule for while I’m in Aix. 1) Saint-Paul-de-Vence (art village) or (2) Grasse (perfume + flowers). Afternoon check-in + pool/garden; dinner on your own.

Thu 6/25 Pick ONE: A) Sainte-Victoire countryside e-bike • B) Château La Coste (art + wine) • C) Aix markets + shopping morning (easy day; afternoon pool/spa).

Fri 6/26 Pick ONE: A) Cassis + Calanques boat cruise • B) Terre Ugo lavender farm • C) Luberon villages loop (Gordes/Roussillon/Lourmarin). Evening free/dinner on your own.
Do I have the best schedule for Aix or should we consider other areas or things to do?

When are you seeing Aix? Most of your time is outside it!

Will you have a car? If not, the day trips for 6/25 might require about 3 hours each way, by public transportation. For you 6/26 day trips, if you do not have a car or don't want to drive, there are organized day trips to these areas that you could reserve.
I agree with Lavendula that it looks like you are not planning much time to explore Aix-en-Provence itself.

My thinking is that most will not want to do everything but pick and choose but your right, I’m staying in Aix and don’t have anything specifically planned for this area. Can you suggest a day in Aix and “ must dos” and what I might want to take out of my itinerary? Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have never been to this area.

What I remember most from 20 years ago is walking to and touring Cezanne's last studio.
