Provence Itinerary

Posted by on

Thanks in advance for the advice!

My husband and I are traveling to Provence in mid June, arriving into Marseille (from Edinburgh) in the evening and likely flying out of Lyon. If flying out of Marseille back to the States, we'd have to do an overnight in Dublin, hence flying out of Lyon.

How does this itinerary look? Any changes or additions? We love the countryside and smaller cities.

Fly into Marseille, pick up car rental

2-3 nights Cassis and a hike or boat to Calanques

5-6 nights in the Luberon based in Saint-Saturnin-Les-Apt

2-3 nights in Arles

1 night in Lyon before flight (drive or train to Lyon?)

Thanks again!

My only comment is I'd suggest at least two nights in Lyon. Lyon really is a small Paris, there's a lot to see and do, and terrific food. Perhaps 5 Luberon, 2 Arles, and 3 Lyon. Train to Lyon, there's great public transit there.
