VENICE BIENNALE
THE EXPERIENCE
Renowned for its fragrant lavender, beautiful landscape, and artistic traditions, past and present, the South of France is not only home to renowned post-impressionists Paul Cézanne and Vincent Van Gogh but also incredible artisans whose creations include fragrance, textiles, and earthenware. The celebrated region of Provence is ideally suited for exploring the rich history of art, architecture, and design throughout the region from the medieval period to the present.

To fully enjoy our time together you should be in good physical condition and comfortable with the following:
* guests should be able to walk or stand for several hours every day. We take breaks and have lunch but my trips involve a lot of walking. You must feel sure footed on cobbled streets and uneven pavements. If taxis are required due to physical limitations please understand this is the financial responsibility of the client.
* guests will have porter help with your luggage at hotels upon arrival and departure but should be able to manage your luggage until porters arrive which sometimes can mean getting your luggage to a central area of pick up.
