Overview

During this trip, I want you to discover the authentic Provence off the beaten path. We'll start this day by a real journey to the past.

After the death of Jesus, Mary Magdalene's moved to Provence and spent her last 33 years in the grotto in the Sainte Baume massif. The place is very inspiring. To totally immerse in this spiritual atmosphere I propose you to hike there by your own and take your time for a better intimate experience (45 min trail). Of course, if you prefer, I can accompany you.

Than we'll reach Saint-Maximin-la-Sainte-Baume, a small coloured Provencal town : free time for shopping, lunch and visit of Mary Magdalene basilica where her skull is preserved.

We'll finish the day by the beautiful Sainte Victoire massif where you'll have a nice walk in a little hilltop village or through the wines fields.

So if you got the calling or you just simply want to discover the secret places in Provence on Mary Magdalene's path, don't hesitate to book this trip!
