Top Castles in Provence-Alpes-Cote d'Azur

Buy your tickets online in advance! I saved a ton of time skipping the long lines. Plus, you can get a better understanding of the history beforehand, which made everything more engaging.

I suggest joining a guided tour at least once. I went by myself first and later joined a group, which actually helped me understand more about the place's history

If you can, visit on a weekday. I went on a Wednesday and it was way less crowded than the weekends. It felt like I had the place to myself.

Look for the waterfall! It's hidden and worth finding. I wouldn't have noticed it if another visitor hadn't pointed it out. It adds a lovely touch to the ambiance.

Pack a light lunch or snacks! There are limited food options on the island and prices can be a bit steep. A picnic spot with a view is hard to beat!
