How to Get There
Renting a Car
Having a car is almost a necessity in Provence. Especially when it comes to small villages such as Lourmarin. Even though there are many bus lines connecting all villages to larger town, schedules are very irregular and you might find only two schedule stops in a day for some villages.
Make sure to rent your car at your desired destination such as Aix TGV or Marseille Airport, and not further away in a city.
FLY to Marseille. One of the best option is to take a flight to Paris and a connecting flight that will take you directly to Marseille airport. There you can easily rent a car and take a nice 45min drive to the village of Lourmarin.

TAKE A TGV. From the airport CDG in Paris, you can take the TGV directly to the Aix en Provence station where you can rent a car and enjoy a short 30min scenic drive to Lourmarin. The TGV takes about 3h to get to the Aix Station. It is a very pleasant and convenient way to travel to the South of France.
FLY to nice. There are a couple of direct flight from London and New York as well as other places to Nice Airport. There you can also rent a car and board for a 2,5 hour drive to Lourmarin. The drive is scenic, but it can also be tricky for first timers in the region. We advise to use a GPS.
