Elegant fountains, sun-drenched terraces, and centuries of art and culture : all within walking distance. Spending one day in Aix-en-Provence is enough to fall completely in love with the city, but trust us, you’ll want to come back. Let us show you the best of this beloved Provençal gem.
The Cours Mirabeau & the Local Markets of Aix-en-Provence
No visit to Aix begins anywhere else. This grand tree-lined boulevard is the heartbeat of the city, lined with elegant 17th-century mansions, bubbling moss-covered fountains, and the finest cafés in Provence. The best way to experience it ? With a local guide in Provence who knows where to sit, what to order, and which fountain has the best story. Sit down, order a coffee, and watch the world go by. This is the Provençal art of doing nothing, perfectly.
Art & History : Aix-en-Provence Through Paul Cézanne
Aix-en-Provence is the birthplace of Paul Cézanne, and his influence is everywhere : from the light that falls on the Sainte-Victoire mountain to the studios and streets he immortalized on canvas. We’ll take you through the city with his eyes, tracing the landscapes and neighborhoods that shaped one of the greatest painters of all time. Curious to go deeper? Our dedicated Cézanne & Art Tour is entirely set in Aix and takes you behind the canvas of a true Provençal master.
Food, Wine & the Provençal Table
Aix en Provence is a food lover’s paradise. From a glass of chilled rosé on a sunny terrace to a full tasting of local specialties such as tapenade, calissons, aged cheeses… every bite tells a story. On a private tour in Provence, we arrange a guided tasting through the market, followed by lunch at a restaurant where the menu changes with the seasons and the produce comes from down the road. No groups, no rush, just you and the flavors of the South.
Wine lovers, this one’s for you : our Rosé All Day tour takes you through the vineyards surrounding Aix-en-Provence for an immersive day of tastings, cellar visits, and everything rosé : the way only Provence does it.
