Jamie & Joy's Insider Tips
- Best Time to Visit Provence: Plan your cycling tour between April and October when the weather is typically warm and dry. July and August can be hot—ideal for early morning rides. Beware of the Mistral winds, particularly in spring, which can turn a peaceful ride into a challenge.
- Ride Variety for All Levels: One of the best parts of biking in Provence is the variety—whether you want to cruise through vineyard-lined roads or tackle the legendary Mont Ventoux, you can do both in the same day. We’ll help you plan routes for all skill levels.
- Can’t-Miss Morning Markets: Provence’s markets are part of its soul. Time the start of your tour to experience:
- Sault Market (Wednesdays)
- Bedoin Market (Mondays)
- Vaison-la-Romaine Market (Tuesdays & Saturdays)
- Gordes Market (Tuesdays)
- Lavender Season: The lavender fields of Sault bloom in July. Visit during this time for unforgettable views and lavender festivals. Stop by Aroma’Plantes for a tour, museum visit, or to pick up essential oils and lavender-based products.
- Nougat Stop in St. Didier: Don’t miss Nougat Sylvain, a family-owned producer in St. Didier. Their handmade nougat is a local delicacy and a favorite energy boost during a long ride.
- Craft Spirits in Sault: If you’re into craft beverages, visit Le Vadrouilleur—a small-batch, organic distillery run by a father-son duo. Try a tasting or even take a gin-making workshop.
- Wines of the Dentelles: Cycle through vineyards from Vaison-la-Romaine to L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue via iconic wine towns like the ones listed below.
- Visit Gordes at Sunset: The hilltop town of Gordes is one of the most photographed in France. Time your arrival around sunset for the golden hour views from Abbaye de Sénanque and cobblestone charm.
- Antiques and Waterways in Isle-sur-la-Sorgue: Known as the “Venice of Provence,” L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue is perfect for a post-ride stroll through antique shops and canalside cafés.
- Roman Ruins in Vaison-la-Romaine: Spend a rest day walking through one of France’s richest Roman archaeological sites in Vaison-la-Romaine. Visit the Roman bridge and amphitheater, then treat yourself to local cuisine in the medieval upper town.
- Custom Tour Packet Included: Every guest receives a fully personalized Tour Packet with curated routes, market schedules, tasting notes, and logistical tips. It’s your insider guide to Provence—designed by experts who’ve ridden every kilometer.
