About This Experience in Avignon

A tour to take your time discovering the villages and iconic charm of the Luberon, including Gordes, a perched and authentic village listed among the most beautiful villages in France. You will stop at Sénanque Abbey, built in the 12th century, a true haven of peace surrounded by lavender fields. You will also visit the magnificent ochre trail of Roussillon, a site of ochre extraction where you will discover all its secrets (Ochre trail entry included). Then, stroll through the village of Roussillon, bordered by ochre cliffs shaped by nature and humankind, where you can enjoy your lunch break (time included in the village visit). Finally, your day will end in Fontaine-de-Vaucluse, where you will discover the refreshing, bubbling waters of the Sorgue, a fascinating and crystal-clear river. You can also learn about traditional papermaking techniques, just as they were in the 15th century, powered by its watermill.
