Our Expertinsight
“6 days is ideal to ensure you have the best experience in both Paris and Provence. Of course, feel free to extend your stay in France by adding days in Paris or consider adding an extra destination like Lyon or the French Riviera – there's always more to explore, making your trip even more fulfilling! While this romantic adventure is doable by train with a few tweaks, I highly recommend a rental car in Provence as it will allow more freedom and flexibility to visit more remote areas.”
