Description:
Discover Provence's iconic mountain on a full-day tour that takes you through the scenic countryside. Explore picturesque villages and visit local wineries to taste the iconic Coteaux d'Aix-en-Provence wine.
Reaching 3,317 feet (1,011 m) at its peak, Montagne Sainte-Victoire dominates the countryside and has been immortalized in numerous paintings by the famous Post-Impressionist Paul Cézanne. Take in the spectacular views from various vantage points and marvel at the diversity of the Provençal landscapes, from the mountain's ridge to the Alps.
Following your time at the mountain, enjoy a drive along minor roads and gaze at hills covered with vines, olive trees, and pine groves. Visit sleepy, picturesque Provençal villages clustered around the mountain and walk through charming little alleys and cobbled streets.
Along the way, visit several local wineries to see the fine red, white, and rosé that is produced here under the Coteaux d'Aix-en-Provence appellation. Let your guide explain the wine-making process, from the grapevine to the bottling plant, before you head to the tasting room to sample the renowned local wine.
