Hi all,
I would also like to visit a chateau near Aix - but we are by bike so we do not want to go to far from Aix city. I was looking for chateau Bougerelle but they say they are closed, another one only has red wine......does someone have good ideas ?? Thank you, Caro
I think you will find there are many tasting rooms within the town of Aix.
The tourist office can also point you to various 'dégustation' places. You'll probably find various leaflets about winetasting there as well.

and for regional wine tasting:

With Googlemaps or www.viamichelin.com you can find how far out the various places are from Aix-en-Provence.
Check out the markets--a lot of it is the same Provencal-pattern stuff you find in tourist shops, but there are unique finds. At one market I went to there was a young woman selling hundreds of beautiful woven shawls. She was really friendly and found a shawl that went with my coloring. Or you might find cool antique somewhere.

99% of the activities, museums, fairs, etc... are located in the historical town centre.
Nevertheless, a quiet, peaceful and rather spectacular place is the Vasarely Foundation.
This huge building shelters 5 m high works of art.
Vasarely is an artist who played with geometrical form and optical effects. Not so visited a place you can sit for some time admiring and letting your sight being fooled.
We just wanted a small dinner and all the crepe stands were closed when we came across this charming restaurant. It is located in a sixteenth century building/cave, and was run by a very nice family. The waitress spoke English well, as I was tired and my French was getting very bad. It might not be a bad idea to bring a dictionary as a lot of the words and ingredients in these crepes were not part of the words I still remembered from 20 years ago when I lived in Aix. Still, the food was great, the wine was nice, and the atmosphere great. A nice, low key last meal in Aix.
Aix is the city of fountains. You find them anywhere. From the large one on the “Rotonde” – the central roundabout, to some very artistic ones along the Cours de Mirabeau to small ones on one of the many squares.
