Provence in France and the Cinque Terre in Italy are two of the most picturesque locations in the world in which to walk. Including spectacular sights, fascinating history and mouth watering cuisine in both regions, this tour is an all-inclusive package including all meals and wine.

In Provence, ancient cobblestone hill villages, Roman ruins including the magnificent Pont du Gard aqueduct, stunning mountain views, historic fortresses and the best markets in France are discovered on your walks throughout the beautiful Vaucluse region. Picnics and café lunches in picturesque locations, and dinners in village squares and courtyard garden restaurants, make up a quintessential picture of one of France’s most beautiful regions. We stay for 6 nights in an exquisite boutique hotel in an historic mill house, retaining waterways running from the adjacent Sorgue River and adding delightful outdoor areas where you can spend your evenings relaxing.

From here, you will continue on to your next base in Moneglia on the Ligurian Riviera, and stay in a family-run beachfront hotel which provides you with delicious Italian seafood and other local specialties each evening. Exploring the Cinque Terre over the next 6 days you will discover the five villages, walking along cliff-side paths with exhilarating sea and mountain views and enjoy exceptional food and wine. Take a ferry trip to famous Portovenere and walk to the castle on the craggy outcrop and hike across the promontory from the monastery of San Fruttuoso to Portofino, playground to the rich and famous. An unforgettable tour, discovering the highlights of each of these breathtaking regions from a unique perspective.
