Marseille is the region’s capital, a hidden pearl buried in the heart of the French Mediterranean coastline. The rocky Provencal hills plunge down toward the ancient port and the thousands of boats anchored in its clear blue waters.

Less than an hour’s drive away, Vaucluse is a corner of paradise, the real inland kingdom of Provence – there are protected natural areas between Mont Ventoux and Luberon, hilltop villages of which seven are among the most beautiful villages in France, vast expanses of vineyards and lavender, and outstanding monuments like those in Orange or Avignon, listed as UNESCO world heritage sites.
