A Private Provençal Buying & Immersion Journey
May 6-12
Limited to 6 guests
This is Provence as it’s meant to be experienced.
Guided by locals who call this region home, this intimate six-day journey offers a window into Provençal life beyond the guidebook. Join Libby, owner and curator of French Bleue, as she leads a thoughtfully paced immersion shaped by long-standing local relationships and insider access.
Expect markets visited the way locals do, before the crowds arrive. Meals that stretch into conversation. Time to wander, source, taste, and connect, not as a tourist, but as a welcomed guest. Every detail reflects a Provençal approach to travel rooted in presence, pleasure, and a deep sense of place.
Taking place over Mother’s Day weekend, this experience is both a quiet celebration and a gentle pause. Days are thoughtfully planned, never rushed, leaving space for discovery, conversation, and inspiration.
