Luberon wine tour by e-bike: Vineyards and tasting

Lavender fields and vineyard slopes come with a wine expert at the end of the ride.

An e-bike tour through the Luberon starting in Bonnieux, combining a self-guided ride through vineyards and villages with a wine tasting at Domaine de la Citadelle in Ménerbes. You navigate using a free app and personalized routes, then learn about local grape varieties and winemaking from an expert. The tour runs one full day and suits riders of all fitness levels. Helmets and bikes are provided.

The experience

Electric bikes handle the hills so the ride stays easy even through steep terrain. You start from Bonnieux, one of the perched villages the Luberon is known for, and follow app-guided routes through lavender fields and past the typical stone villages scattered across the region. The bike and helmet come with you. A lock secures it when you stop. The route is yours to pace. You move through the landscape at your own speed, stopping where the views or a village cafe pull you.

After the ride, you arrive at Domaine de la Citadelle in Ménerbes for the wine tasting. An expert walks you through the high-quality wines the estate produces, explaining the local grape varieties (Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre), and the techniques that define Provence winemaking. This is not a quick pour. You learn what makes the region's wines distinct.

The app guides you in English or French, so language is not a barrier. The full day is built around combining two things most travelers do separately: moving through the landscape under your own power and tasting what grows there.

What’s included
