The landscape of classic Provence is definitely a sight to behold. From the Pont du Gard and the scattered remnants of Roman architecture, the endless rows of vineyards and olive groves, to the medieval village Uzes and on you way to the mekka of Rose, Tavel.

Literally you will have a explosion of flavours in Provence. From briny olives and earthy truffles in the markets of Uzes, indulge in the delicious goat cheeses with figs, spread your toasts with aoli or pesto dip. And the perfect accompaniment for these flavours is a glass of Provençal wine, rose, white or red.

You will certainly awaken your sense of smell as you cycle along the pungent fields of sage, rosemary and thyme and inhale the relaxing scent of the ubiquitous lavender.

And your ears will be abuzz with the sounds of Provence as you hear humming voices carrying through the markets, encouraging cheers from the old people playing petanque, and the subtle song of the cicadas making you sleep like a baby.
