3 days
in Aix-en-Provence
A 3-day plan that gets the best out of Aix-en-Provence without burning out by day four. Skip a day if you need to — the trip is yours.
- Day 1
Arrive and acclimatise
Land in Aix-en-Provence, drop bags at your Booking.com property and don't try to do too much. Walk the closest neighbourhood, find a café, eat somewhere local and call it early. Day-one jet lag is undefeated.
- Day 2
The classic Aix-en-Provence day
Lean into what Aix-en-Provence is famous for — the marquee experience first, then a long lunch with a view.
- Day 3
Go a bit deeper
Pick a corner of Aix-en-Provence you haven't seen yet. Walk further than yesterday, eat where locals eat, skip the trophy spots.
