Excellent
Very good informative tour and gets you to all the main things to see. However I think the 2 hours in Fontaine de Valcuse was too long and it would have been nicer to have more time in Gordes and especially Roussillon. Also spent probably too much time at the L isle sur la Sorgue but Isabel the guide was really good. Went well over time really a great day. Thank u
Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the tour and found Isabel to be a great guide. It’s wonderful to know that her knowledge and enthusiasm contributed to such a memorable day. We also appreciate your thoughtful comments about the time spent in Fontaine-de-Vaucluse and L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, as well as your suggestion to allow more time in Gordes and Roussillon. Feedback like yours is very helpful as we continue to fine-tune the experience and balance the time spent in each destination. We’re glad you had such a great day and that Isabel made it even more enjoyable. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with her! We hope to welcome you again to discover even more of France: Côte d’Azur, Champagne, Burgundy, Normandy, Paris, Bordeaux or the Loire Valley. Best Regards, A LA FRANCAISE!

Lovely Tour of the Luberon with Emilie
My daughter (16) and I were lucky to have a private tour with Emilie. The van was brand new and immaculate and Emilie was a smooth and safe driver. I’ve visited the Luberon myself, but wanted to share experience with my daughter. I had been concerned we would feel rushed, but that was not the case. It seemed we had the right amount of time at each stop. My daughter is in France on exchange and Emilie made an effort to speak to both of us in French and English which we really appreciated - and she was so kind to my daughter still learning. We both really enjoyed our tour and would recommend to anyone!
Response from the operator: Bonjour Natalie, your review just made our day! We're so happy you enjoyed your tour and our guide Emilie. Guests like you are the reason we love what we do. We look forward to seeing you again soon. We're waiting for you for another adventure in Provence, Burgundy, Bordeaux, Loire, Champagne, Paris and Normandy. Team A La Française.

Luberon markets
It seems to be timed well. The market in Gordes was good. Francois was good explaining the different villages we went to.

We're glad to hear that the timing of the tour suited you well and that you enjoyed the market in Gordes, it's always a lively and colorful experience.

Fabulous day out
We had a fabulous day - François was very informative and accommodating, and a careful driver! We were lucky enough to be the only people on this particular tour so it felt very personal. The market was fantastic, it’s definitely worth a visit! Lunch is not included but there are places where you are able to buy lunch. We had prepared food to take but it turned out to have not been necessary. A lovely day out - and François was a superb and knowledgeable guide.
Response from the operator: Bonjour, Thank you for sharing your experience! We're so happy to hear you had a fabulous day and that François made the tour both informative and personal. It’s always a treat to enjoy a more intimate experience, and the local markets are indeed a highlight worth savoring! We hope to welcome you again soon for more discoveries in our beautiful region. Best Regards, A la Française

Luberon Market & Villages from Avignon: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Avignon.
How much does Luberon Market & Villages from Avignon cost?
+
Prices start at $170 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Avignon usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Luberon Market & Villages from Avignon take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Avignon is not rushed.
Is Luberon Market & Villages from Avignon worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Avignon, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Luberon Market & Villages from Avignon?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Luberon Market & Villages from Avignon suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Luberon Market & Villages from Avignon?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Avignon can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Avignon and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Luberon Market & Villages from Avignon start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Avignon within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Avignon?
+
On Outty we rank every Avignon experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Highlights of Provence in One Day, Chateauneuf du Pape wine tour, Lavender Route - Small-Group Day Trip from Avignon. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Avignon?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Avignon?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

+

Where is the meeting point for Luberon Market & Villages from Avignon?
