You're going to find that the city of Aix-en-Provence in the south of France is one of the most delightful places you could ever visit as you’re about to discover out in this detailed movie.
We bring you on a detgailed walking tour of the large pedestrian zone with its charming historic buildings, many shops, cafés, restaurants and the very famous outdoor markets selling fresh produce, clothing, antiques and all kinds of stuff with lots of local characters to observe and interact with. This small city is the perfect size, big enough to keep you busy for several days and yet not too large that you're going to feel lost or frustrated that you can't see everything.
Aix is located in the heart of Provence, a region that has so many wonderful destinations from Avignon to Nice. And you will see that AIX is one place that you must not miss.
You could easily spend a few days here and travel out to visit other nearby destinations, or if you only have one day, it is certainly possible to see most of AIX as we’re going to show you in the movie.

Nicely done. I went to university in Aix for one year, 1977-78, to study the French language and literature and ended up teaching French later on. it was an idyllic year. I was lucky enough to have a French girlfriend and I will never forget riding through the streets of Aix, especially Le Cours Mirabeau, on my motorbike with my girlfriend on the back. It seems like a dream now. Hemingway calls Paris A Moveable Feast and it is a wonderful city as I have lived there as well. But Aix has a Provençal charm and intimacy that Paris can’t match. Aix will always be my Moveable Feast.

that's a nice way to put it, like a Goldilocks approach, not too cold not too hot. It is always a fine balance between wanting to see a lot without rushing. That's why I don't like one-night stands, although sometimes a day-trip, like this one, can be fine, arrive early and stay late.

I had a smile on my face the entire run of the movie. Arles is one of my favourite destinations in France. I adore the place. It has that special atmosphere about it which I think you imparted so well through the places and visuals you chose and presented. As to a recommendation you made on the best time to explore. Well, my own memorable experience was rising up early and taking leisurely walks on rain glistenned cobbled streets while sipping café á emporter and taking small bites of croissant. A treasured memory. Thank you, thank you for sharing. It is much appreciated.

I'm loving your channel. It's a treasure, especially because these young influencers only actually show their faces when doing "tour". It's basically a vlog of their own face. Keep up the good work, sir. Your content is great. I must say something ... Your voice has a natural sarcastic tone in it, so during the whole video I'm in this state of mind of amusement, thinking you are making fun of everything and I LOVE IT.😂

Thank you for this interesting as well as entertaining "tour" of the beautiful mini-city of Aix en Provence. I'm French, lived in London, Luxembourg, Malaga, Sidney, Perlé (Belgium), a little in Germany and now Osaka, but no other places made me feel LIFE as Aix does when I have the chance to come back to it. Although I was born in Martigues, the Provencal Venise, Aix, being more cultural with a little more interesting architecture and overall atmosphere, is the place I've always dreamed calling home. Maybe when retirement comes, I'll go back to my French roots and finally realize this long time dream.

It's been many years since I was there, and I just have to say I'm distressed to see so much graffiti on those gorgeous historical buildings. What a shame.

This video gives a good sense of the way one can stroll the streets of Aix although I would recommend to come not as late in the year (shootings were obviously in autumn and some windy days: I felt cold watching it). Moreover, the light is even better in other seasons. One thing that was missed at the cathedral is the cloister: it is really beautiful and was closed for renovation for years but I believe it is accessible again nowadays.
