Essential, an Autumn in Provence Part Deux
The sun rises later, days become shorter and soon the first cool breeze… Where will you go and see the change of seasons?
Let us dive right into part deux. Provence is a region filled with many little towns/villages and one of my favourites is Uzès. Tourism is one of its main industries along with wine and culture. Uzès like most places has an extremely popular Saturday “marché” market. This market offers local products, clothing and other textiles made in the region, which is perfect for attracting a tourist market.
In regards to family travels you can visit the famous Haribo museum, a must visit to every child’s delight. One more hidden treasure is the Green Park “about 20 minutes outside of Uzés; a 100% natural park filled with animals, vegetable gardens, multiple playgrounds for all ages and it is the ideal park to spend the day and let your little ones run about and enjoy the great outdoors.

Moving to Saint Rémy de Provence where you can stroll its enchanting streets lined with ancient plane trees and through narrow passages to hidden squares and fountains. Explore the Alpilles, a chain of little mountains where Van Gogh and other artists and writers were inspired by the landscape and natural, untamed beauty. This area is a land with proud traditions and authentic styles.
Besides the amazing surroundings there are many boutiques and art galleries to visit. You can sit outside and enjoy a coffee at a local café or a restaurant, or some of the local delights or enjoy the spectacular views of this natural beauty.

Provence is region filled with many sights however a must have is a car to get around easily or we can arrange it for you with a full day activities. Imagine a private driver taking you to discover some of the best wines in Provence and meet the producers of the region with your expert, local guide. What about a private hike? Provence is filled with beauty and adventure so why not taking a walk with a local guide who can show you the insights, stunning views and endless vineyards. The landscapes have an average of 300 days of sun per year and any hike can be tailored to your personal level.
