Undiscovered Provence by Air or Eurostar

Of all the regions of France, Provence is the most irresistible. The borders are defined by nature: to the west, the River Rhone; the south, the Mediterranean; the east, the Alps; and to the north, where the olive trees end.

It is a land of striking natural beauty and great diversity - from sun baked plains with fields of lavender, interspaced with vineyards and olive groves crowned in the distance by the hills of the Luberon and the azure blue sky. The deep valleys are the home of vast oak and pine forests giving that unmistakable Mediterranean aroma to the air.

Historically the Greeks visited, the Phonecians traded, the Saracens looted, but most of all the Romans settled. All have left their legacies but the Romans loved Provence so much that there are more remains of their remarkable civilisation here than anywhere else outside Italy.  The desolate wilderness of the Camargue is fascinating, with its white horses galloping across flat wetlands, herds of black bulls and striking flocks of pink flamingoes, which appear to fly and land in perfect formation!

So, for a unique blend of interesting and superb monuments, fine food, culture and most of all some outstanding scenery, come with us and see.
