Tour Overview
Your adventure in Cotignac, recognized as one of the most stunning villages in France, begins at the designated meeting point outside the prestigious Lou Calen Hotel & Restaurant—the establishment favored by stars like Brad Pitt and George Clooney. It's time to embark on an engaging private tour through the captivating landscape of the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region.
Your exploration kicks off along the vibrant Cours Gambetta, the village’s main thoroughfare. With its array of delightful local cafés, eateries, and shops, this lively street serves as a hub for both residents and tourists. While strolling this bustling avenue, you'll uncover the fascinating history of Cotignac, which has significant connections to the olive oil and silkworm industries.
As we progress along the Cours, we will reach the Shrine of Our Lady of Graces' Church. Renowned for its historical importance, this site is where a Marian apparition was reported in the 16th century.

As we conclude our journey, you'll behold the impressive limestone cliff that towers over Cotignac. Our final destination involves a climb up the Rocher, where we will explore the ancient troglodyte cave dwellings. Ascending 90 stone-carved steps, you’ll arrive at an awe-inspiring viewpoint offering magnificent views of Cotignac—a fitting finale to your tour!
