Romantic getaway
Why not rent a Citroën 2CV to explore the prettiest corners of the Luberon? You’re guaranteed the most charming way of seeing the area. Once you’re behind the wheel of this delightful vintage car, head towards Gordes – one of the official “Plus Beaux Villages de France” (Most Beautiful Villages of France). Time seems to come to a halt as you approach this village perched on the hillside, where steep, narrow lanes mix with the dry stone of the houses.
The road trip continues towards the “Sentier des Ocres” (Ochre Trail) and the village of Roussillon, which is also ranked among the “Plus Beaux Villages de France”.
Then, head in the direction of Domaine de la Citadelle, where you’ll have the incredible chance to discover the estate’s delicious wines. You’ll go straight into the heart of the Luberon on the Plateau des Claparèdes as you drive down roads bordered with lavender…
Worth a visit
On the road that leads to Gordes, you’ll find a spot which offers a spectacular view of the village – a great photo opportunity!
