Provence to French Alps - Drive time?
 
I am planning to spend about 7-9 days in Provence in mid July, (possibly to start with the Riviera in St. Paul de Vence if this is not too much). We will spend our time between two or three locations: the St. Remy area, then Gordes, then up to the northern reach - NW of Seguret and Nyons heading toward the Rhone Valley >>Is driving from northern Provence/Rhone Valley to the French Alps near Geneva a manageable drive. Approximately how far is the distance in hours or miles? Thank You!

It's a drive I've done fairly frequently. Takes me 3 1/2 hours from our place in the Luberon to Geneva, so if you are starting from Nyons, might be a bit less.

Based on my driving experience, I'd allow 4 hours if you have a schedule to meet. Good luck.
