Explore Provence and for one week live the French way…Everyday!
From our wonderful mas in the heart of Provence, we’ve put together a week of unparalleled textile education including amazing design expeditions, craft&techniques, treasure hunting and much more; all set against the backdrop of stunning scenery and centuries of history. Grab this chance to immerse yourself in a region that has inspired thousands of artisans and designers and experience the true meaning of l’art de vivre.
Topping it off, you’ll experience Provence as a design insider with what has become all of our tours’ signature- private design destinations- to some of the best and most exclusive ateliers, workshops, studios, markets and shops in Provence.
Our itinerary doesn’t have your ordinary tourist stops (feel free to explore those on your own) we have curated excursions and destinations on our Provence tour custom made for your creative eye. After all, Provence is where artists, writers and design creatives get their inspiration. We have crafted what we think is the perfect blend of Group Time and Alone Time.
