Is this ok for reasonably fit walkers and is there any hill walking?

We've graded this trip as leisurely and moderate. You should have a good general level of fitness and be comfortable walking consecutive days on varied terrain. Our daily walks range from 6 to 11 kilometre/3.7 to 6.8 miles. You can expect to be walking for two to four-and-a-half hours each day, balanced with sightseeing in the afternoons. The majority of the paths we take are well-maintained vineyard tracks and rural lanes, some sections do involve rocky trails, limestone crags and exposed ridgelines. These include walking near the cliffs of the Gorges de la Nesque an across the ridges of the Alpilles, where you'll need a steady foot. Our itinerary includes a good mix of walking and cultural exploration. You can expect to spend the mornings hiking, while the afternoons are dedicated to discovering historic sites, medieval hilltop villages, or enjoying the local cuisine. Provence enjoys a Mediterranean climate, however weather conditions can fluctuate. Earlier in the season, you can expect temperatures to be cooler with variable weather, particularly in the national parks. The region is also occasionally subject to the strong Mistral wind. We recommend packing adaptable layers. Throughout this tour, we stay in three-star hotels, chosen for their traditional Provencal charm. They offer a comfortable, relaxing base at the end of a day on the trails.

The June ‘26 cycling trip through Provence with Explore! far surpassed our expectations. As it was our first cycling trip, there was a fair amount of anxiety but that was addressed with detailed & prompt communication prior to the trip and lots of reassurance along the way. The itinerary was very interesting with gradual increase in difficulty matching the varied terrain and incredible sightseeing opportunities. Julien ( our guide) was extremely helpful & attentive checking in on EVERYONE throughout the day & offering advice/encouragement along the way. It is through his consistent effort that our group became a cohesive team looking out for each other on our adventure. Explore! chose perfect accommodations for our home base allowing for plenty of comfort & recovery. Overall, an excellent active vacation! Bravo Explore!Show more
