VV also have riding guides (Andy is one) who can help you out and ride with you - they know the area like the back of their hand.

Fly into Marseille and Craig can pick you up, or rent a car. Bring your bike or rent a nice one in Maulacene or Bedouin. Food and wine - yes!
Just as an aside: I have never done the real Mont Ventoux but I did the fake one on Zwift and it was pretty neat and also really hard!

Also, I could get on board with a trip to Nice or Palma de Mallorca. Neither has a direct flight from the US but both have great cycling.
