We will be in the Luberon part of Provence for five nights in Late April. We are staying at a country inn near Joucas.
So far our list of activities include a day long wine tour, hiking the Le Sentier des Ocres trail and visiting the Abbaye Notre-Dame de Seanque.
We would appreciate any thoughts and suggestions of other activities and villages to visit.
There are many wonderful Luberon villages you can visit such as St. Remy, Les Baux, Eygalieres, Roussillon, Menerbes, Gordes, Bonnieux, Lourmarin, and Ansouis. Many of these towns have wonderful markets. You can do a google search on market days in Provence. We also like L'Isle Sur La Sorgue, which has a market on Sundays and Thursdays. If you have the time, the Pont Du Gard is worth visiting.
I'll shamelessly self-plug a report from a few years' back: https://community.ricksteves.com/travel-forum/trip-reports/in-and-around-the-luberon
With 4 full days, you have time to see a lot of things. If you want somewhere a bit more bustling, Apt has a great market on selected days, and l'Isle sur la Sorgue is fun to explore as well.
Very cool. I really liked Joucas when I visited in 2015. I think you’ve got 3 good days planned. If I assume you’ve not been to Provence before, then I would say Arles plus point du gard for the 4th day. If you have seen it and other Provence big sites already, then I’m not sure u have more to offer.
