The region of Provence is vast, stretching from the border of Italy and the Mediterranean Sea to the Rhone.

It’s a region that is famous for its diverse landscapes, from the Alps and lush plains of the Camargue to the vibrant lavender fields, olive groves and rolling vineyards of the Luberon where the landscape is ever changing according to the seasons. The history, particular to each region and town, transcends centuries, millennia even. The Greeks, the Romans, 19th-century modernization, the scars of World War II, the mysterious legends and local heroes provide you with secrets and stories that bring to life the past.
