We did not take a tour of the Calanques but instead decided to walk from the town of Cassis to the nearest Calanque, which is at Port-Miou. The walk was a little tiring but gave us an opportunity to see the residential area just outside of the center of Cassis and was a beautiful stroll. However, the real beauty was seeing the boats moored along the dock at Port-Miou. What a sight! The way the waterway is carved out of the surrounding rock is amazing. You can walk down to the docks and see the boats and also walk to the end of the dock and up the hillside to get a beautiful view of the entry into Port-Miou. We thoroughly enjoyed the walk and seeing Port-Miou.

Place Villeneuve-Bargemon is a beautiful area. It is quite large and it offers plenty of space for people to sit down and relax, and at the same time enjoy superb views of the Old Port. Public concerts and other events are also held here from time to time. This was one of the first places we visited on our arrival in Marseille and we found it a very rewarding experience.

The old harbour of St. Tropez is always worth of visit. Especially if there is a sailing event like always end of September for great yachts. It’s a pleasure to walk along just looking at the boats and all kind of people and stop for a drink or meal in the many restaurants near the quai.
9. Van Gogh Walk

A 1km walk connecting the center of Saint Remy de Provence and Saint Paul de Mausole where Vincent van Gogh lived the last years of his life, decorated with panels depicting paintings by the artist all along the way. Panels are not at the place where Van Gogh painted them.

I am a big Van Gogh fan and I was very happy to see exactly where he painted several of his masterpieces, right on this property of the asylum. It is also across the street from the roman ruins, too.
10. Vieille Ville de Gordes

Gordes is officially registered among the loveliest villages in France and this is fully deserved. The village is located upside a stiff rock dominating the valley. It’s worthwhile to get lost in the narrow streets and to enjoy the nice view all over the surroundings. Conversely it’s a good idea to stop at the view point one mile before the arrival to get a stunning view on the whole village. Of course Gordes is crowded in summer and you may have to park at a distance (no free parking slots).
