Searching for Group Cycling companies / Best Villages for South of France-Maybe Provence area?

Does anyone have any good recommendations for reasonably priced Group Cycle Tours for The Provence area ( South France) for 6- 10 day periods? I will be traveling to the area in Sept of 2016 and I wanted some referrals?
I have seen many US Based tours which are incredibly high priced at 4000-5000 USD amd this seems absurd for 6-10 days periods only?

Does anyoen have any suggestions on the best places /villages in South France for a 2-3 week stay in Sept? I am super active but I do enjoy the hilltop,lush pictures of villages in South France. (BTW I've never been to this part of France).
My preference would be commercial or guided group tours.

Please help?

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated...

I haven't checked for the cycling tours but we did a fabulous self-guided hiking tour through discoverfrance.com in 2010.

Laura -
My wife and I have done four self-guided bike rides in France with Discover France (www.discoverfrance.com), including an 8 day, 7 night trip through Provence. It took us from Avignon through Uzes, Nimes, Arles, and Les Baux, averaging about 30 KM per day. If you're not ready for a self-guided tour (highly recommended), try Backroads or VBT for high-end guided tours.
