YOUR WEEK STARTS HERE
7 DAYS IN THE LUBERON
Villages, Markets & the Art of Slow Travel
Seven thoughtfully planned days built around market mornings, beautiful villages, long lunches and the little places and experiences we’ve discovered along the way.
Experience the Luberon without spending hours figuring out how to plan it.
I created this guide around the way I actually explore Provence: mornings at local markets, beautiful villages that make sense to visit together, long lunches, hidden corners and plenty of time to slow down and enjoy where you are.
Inside, you'll find seven thoughtfully planned days filled with my favorite villages, markets, restaurants, local experiences and lesser-known stops, along with the practical tips I've learned from spending years exploring this part of Provence.
Whether it's your first trip to the Luberon or you're coming back for more, think of this as having a Provence-loving friend plan your week for you.
You just have to show up and enjoy it.

WHY THIS GUIDE
Provence, the way we actually travel it.
This isn’t an itinerary built from a list of must-see sights. It’s a collection of places Andy and I have come to love over years of exploring the Luberon: the villages we return to, the markets we never want to miss, restaurants we still talk about and little discoveries we’ve made along the way.
I’ve taken all of those experiences and shaped them into seven thoughtful days, with enough structure to make planning easy and enough breathing room to let Provence surprise you.
This is the Luberon we know and love, and the one I’d want a friend to experience on their first trip.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this guide only for a seven-day trip?
Not at all. The guide is organized into seven thoughtfully planned days, but you can easily pick and choose individual days or combine recommendations to fit a shorter stay.
Do I need to follow the days in order?
No. Each day is designed around a specific market day, so you can rearrange the itinerary depending on when you arrive and how long you’re staying.
Do I need a car?
Yes. A car is the best way to explore the Luberon and will give you the freedom to reach the villages, markets and experiences included in the guide.
What format is the guide?
This is a digital guide that you’ll receive after purchase, so you can keep it on your phone, tablet or computer while planning and traveling.
Is this guide good for someone who has already visited Provence?
Absolutely. While it works beautifully for a first trip to the Luberon, I’ve included plenty of smaller villages, local favorites and places that are easy to miss, even if you’ve been to Provence before.
