Getting Around Provence

Car Hire

We’d recommend hiring a car if you can. Cars can be hired from Marseille, Montpellier and Nîmes Airports, as well as Avignon TGV station if you’re arriving by train.

If you’d rather not hire one, get in touch and we’ll do our best to match you with other guests for car sharing.
