Contributor blog post by Paula Kane:
One thing you can count on if you live in Provence is visitors. It’s a given. Everyone wants to come here and they all want to stay with you.
This is a mixed blessing; it’s wonderful to have your friends and love ones around you and share this magical place. But for Paula’s travel tips for your holiday in Provence. The things you can count on include, scheduled and completely random closings of anything from restaurants to tourist sites. Provence is both beautiful and overwhelming. The geography is huge and impossible to tackle in a short visit. Plan your trip accordingly balancing day trips with lazy pool side days.
To help you with planning your Provence trip check out our interactive map here and our list of tours and local guides here.
