Does anyone have advice on the best way to take a day trip from Avignon to Aix en Provence - train or bus or private tour? Thanks!
I used Emily Durand fro Your Private Provence for a private transfer. She was excellent! Great price, reliable and honest. Emily will work with you to customize.

If you want to do it on your own, the bus (LER 23) is best. Takes approx 75 minutes each way. Several daily departures on weekdays, maybe only 2-3 on weekends but enough to organize a day trip. Bus stations in both cities are right at the edge of the city center.
I did it by bus, for the exact reasons stated above-the train requires several transfers, while the bus was direct. The bus was fine, and I'd certainly do it this way again.
