P.S. If you stay in smaller towns, parking is not a problem. You can take a train or bus to the big cities if you need to. In Avignon, check out Isle Sur La Sorgue. In Nice, we always stay in Beaulieu sur Mer.
It seems like Bandol and Cassis are halfway between Nice and Avignon. What makes those towns good for wine?
