Looking for an inexpensive co. that provides the hotel reservations, map and luggage transportation so that I will be free to walk and savour Provence as slowly as possible.

Backroads, but they are not inexpensive. Great company that offers hotels, meals and maps with lots of support. Well worth the money. Try backroads.com

Try Discover France. I haven't used them yet, but they offer a wide range of options.

There are no inexpensive organised holidays in Provence.

The Footloose division of ATG Oxford offers excellent trip planning, hotel selection and luggage organisation. www.atg-oxford.co.uk/prog_3.php

Discover France has some very reasonably priced self-guided tours. We did their bike tour in the Loire Valley last year and had a great time. It was less expensive than if we had booked the hotels and restaurants ourselves. They do both bike and walking tours. We are considering a walking tour in Provence for next year.

Perhaps you could try these two:www.inntravel.co.uk, www.ramblesholidays.co.uk.
