Probably the highlight of Marseille. If you come to Marseille you must take some time out to take a trip to the provence countryside. The scenery and ideallic French villages are picture perfect. Yes there are a lot of tourists, and no doubt this will increase as the summer season moves on, but don’t let that put you off.
We visited Fontaine de Voucluse, Gordes, Roussillon and Lourmarin. Each of these places has their own unique charm and character. We did get a bit carried away and spend 46 euros on cheese and tapenade very quickly in Gordes at their daily market. Be careful it’s not cheap buying things at these markets, but it’s easy to get tempted. Here are some images of the day.
