A trip around a wonderful mountain in Provence

Luberon

Tour Description: Guided

The Lubéron mountains are in the heart of the Provence and are a protected area because of its particular landscapes. The nature is original and the villages can’t be more typical than here. Remember the incredible stories written by Peter Mayle in his book: A Year in Provence. Or the novels of Jean Giono describing the region around Manosque.

This tour leads you in the extraordinary world of colours and senses. Forgotten medieval villages stick on the hills when you are following the Durance in the valley, various landscapes, pine forests and coloured sceneries await you in an unknown Provence. And what a great cuisine you’ll taste! France-Bike tours are well known for these typical French accommodations.

Route character

This tour is our most sportive trip because of the climbs in this hilly region. But we think that nearly everyone can do it. You can also rent our electric bikes that carry you without problems upon the hills!

Feedback: Guided

"It was a great trip! We enjoyed the self guided tour. Luggage transport was great. Hotels were good. Other people on the tour were great. Food was good. There were a few locations where the directions could be improved, but we always found our way. I think we actually enjoyed getting lost once in a while it was never more than 2 kilometers. I suggest that they provide plastic bags for the maps in case it rains and even if it doesn't it protect them better than the pouches on the handle bar packs. The bikes were good and comfortable. The service at the hotels was good. The owner at Hotel La Ferme in Avignon was not too friendly. Please don't tell him I said that. He seemed to come around the last night we were there. We all joked about his demeanor. Everywhere else the service was friendly and great. The people in France are very nice and polite. I have to say it was a great experience. The Luberon - C'est magnifique!"
