What to see in Gordes

The must-sees
of Gordes.

One of the most photographed villages in Provence: houses of pale stone climbing a cliff face, a Renaissance castle at the top, and Sénanque Abbey a few minutes away in the hills. Comfortably a full day out from Marseille.

🏘️

The hilltop village

Golden stone houses stacked up the cliff above the valley. The postcard view is from the road coming up from the plain, just before the last bend — the stop every visitor asks for.

🏰

Gordes castle

Rebuilt in the 16th century on medieval foundations, the castle stands right on the village square and anchors the old centre with its exhibition rooms.

🪨

Village des Bories

A hamlet of dry-stone huts built without mortar, a few kilometres below the village. An open-air museum of Provençal rural building at its purest.

💜

Sénanque Abbey

A 12th-century Cistercian abbey tucked in a fold of the hills north of the village, still home to a community of monks. Its lavender field flowers roughly mid-June to mid-July.

🧺

Cobbled lanes & market day

Stepped calades, vaulted passages and shaded squares. On Tuesday mornings the market takes over the centre with local produce, soaps and Provençal fabrics.

Tips from your chauffeur
  • →The best photograph of Gordes is taken on the way in, from the belvedere on the valley road — mention it when you book and your driver can pull in there.
  • →Wear proper shoes: the lanes are steep, cobbled and often stepped, and the village is best explored on foot.
  • →For the lavender at Sénanque Abbey, aim for the first hours of the morning between mid-June and mid-July — better light, and the narrow lane down to the abbey is far calmer.
  • →The centre is tight and largely closed to traffic in season: a drop-off at the nearest authorised point saves a long walk from the car parks. Agree your pick-up time before you set off, phone signal in the valleys is patchy.

Excellent experience with Hamid and his driving service. He arrived on time, and even walked 2 blocks to greet us at our rental on foot because our place was in a pedestrian- only zone and could not be reached by car. The drive itself was smooth and very comfortable. I highly recommend Hamid and Marseille Provence Driver 👏🏽

We were traveling as a family and had a great experience with the transfer service. They picked us up at the Marseille cruise port and took us to Aix-en-Provence. Both drivers were very polite, friendly, and professional. Everything went smoothly and the service was excellent. We were very happy with the experience and would definitely recommend them!
