Maillane is a village in Bouches-du-Rhône, on the Provençal plain north of the Alpilles. Its streets and houses give it the feel of a village rather than a large town, with farmland and the Alpilles rising in the background. It suits travellers looking to discover Provençal villages and visit Avignon without staying in its urban centre. The village is also associated with Frédéric Mistral, a Provençal writer and poet born in Maillane.

The Maison de Frédéric Mistral offers an insight into his life and the Provençal language; Sainte-Agathe Church and the Aux Fleurs de l’Eau water garden are other places to visit in the village. Graveson, about 2 km away, is home to the Auguste Chabaud Museum, dedicated to the Provençal painter. Avignon, 13 km from the listed points of interest, draws visitors to the Palace of the Popes and the Saint-Bénézet Bridge, notable remains of its medieval history. Tarascon and Avignon TGV station are about 10 km away. Nîmes-Alès-Camargue-Cévennes Airport is 29 km away; a car makes it easier to travel between these places.

In spring and autumn, mild temperatures are well suited to visiting villages and taking trips into the Alpilles. In summer, plan outdoor activities for the morning or late afternoon, when the Provençal heat is less intense. A day could combine a visit to Maillane with a trip to Avignon, followed by a walk through the landscapes of the Alpilles. Markets and village festivals also offer a chance to discover local produce and traditions, depending on the season.
