Private Tour: Perched Villages of the Luberon

Marseille, France

Not far away, you will discover Menerbes, a fortress village which has been witness of numerous religious wars. Continue to Bonnieux for a stop for lunch. In the afternoon, make a stop in Roussillon to admire its red cliffs and then you will reach the enchanting village of Gordes overlooking Luberon.

We really enjoyed this tour. We had the same driver that we had had the day before anhd she was very good. She dropped one of the villages and started the tour in Aix as we had not had a chance to see it while we were in Marseilles. Unfortunately the van got a flat tire in the last village and this caused us to get back to the hotel an hour later than expected. The tour company worked hard to get us a replacement van so that we would not be delayed too long. This was not viatour but Provence tours. I was surprised to see that both of our booked tours were given off to other tour companys. I found this tour to be extremely expensive for this time of the year. I wish that we had waited until we got to marseilles to book. I wanted to go on this tour and a group tour was not available so we spent the big bucks and booked a private, when in fact the tour that we had the day before with the same guide was supposed to be a group tour and it turned out to be just the two of us for a lot less money. So word to the wise if you are going to visit at the beginning or end of the weason you can save yourself alot of money by booking when you get to your destination.
