Office de Tourisme d’Aix-en-Provence
About
An official visitor centre and the first point of contact for anyone looking to explore the enchanting city of Aix‑en‑Provence, the Office de Tourisme d’Aix‑en‑Provence sits in the heart of the town, between the historic old quarter and the newer Aix‑today. The centre, housed in a modern building that opened in 2011, offers visitors a warm, friendly welcome, a wide range of up‑to‑date maps, the tourist city pass (24/48/72 h), and a dedicated shop selling local souvenirs. Using the interactive map on its website, visitors can find accurate addresses, opening times, and directions to the main attractions, as well as discover the upcoming events, guided tours along Cezanne sites, and thematic hiking routes. The office also provides digital assistance, a large desktop display and a printed brochure library, ensuring travellers have the information they need no matter whether they prefer a screen or a paper guide. For business visitors, the office offers a full suite of MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions) services: event organisation, venue selection, local partners, accommodation, transport, and a variety of day‑tour packages. The centre welcomes group organisers, trade delegations, and media representatives, and can help plan tailored itineraries around the renowned vineyards, the countryside and the Provence heritage sites.
