Philosophy
- Quite Simple, getting Pleasure from Walking and Cycling - « Strolling thoughtfully, cycling freely, and not in a hurry; fill your senses with your surroundings; join in a game of pétanque; offer yourself a landscape, a smile in the Luberon; and at the end of the day you feel good – cozy in your charming guest house…
Cycling and walking is by far the best way to discover your natural surroundings, local culture, and meet its people.
A world traveler, I have lived in Provence for more than 20 years.
It is rare to find a place that marries so many riches: beautiful landscapes, exceptional villages and landmarks, interesting people, delightful accommodation, and the unbeatable Provençal way of life –
all for the pleasure of those who come to explore.
By foot or by bike, I invite you to discover Walk Inn Provence »

Anne Charlotte Luneau
Life is too short to be bored – which could be penned as Anne Charlotte’s mantra.
Her travels have taken her all over the world and she’s worked a number of trades, ranging all the way from denturist to lumberjack, and everything in between. But the one constant has always been her love of nature, growing up with a mountain-guide-of-a-father, and embarking on many treks of her own.
As a guide Anne-Charlotte began along the rough trails of Corsica before favouring the rolling hills of Provence. Soft-spoken, attentive, and with a heart of gold, Anne-Charlotte will ensure your Provence experience will be a memorable one. And don’t try to stump her on anything botany-related: it won’t work.
Pierre Luneau Pierre studied at a renowned art school in Paris before joining his brother in his ceramic workshop; Pierre would spend his Friday nights driving his Citroen Deux-chevaux 700 kilometers across France to the Alps, for a weekend of extreme climbing, before driving back again for Monday morning eight o' clock.
Later in life he decided to leave clay and earthenware for what it was, to take off into the airs. As a certified paragliding instructor he turns his pupils into birds.
But he lands from time to time to walk the paths of southern France and share his passion for wild flowers, history, travels and storytelling.
Pierre Loehr From the Alsace region in France, Pierre has been an accredited guide for over 20 years.
Above and beyond his guided hikes, Pierre takes his guests mountain biking, rock climbing, and in the winter time you can find him zipping down the slopes with his groups, or backcountry skiing.
And although he’s as fit as they come, he’s more than happy to slow down the pace to share his love and knowledge of Provence, by bike or on foot.
