Experience of a Lifetime - Our guide, Lucy, was excellent--so knowledgeable about ANYTHING we had questions about, and so friendly and interesting. She took us up into the mountains north of Aix-en-Provence to some amazing spots, both fantastic lavender fields and also several little picturesque towns. It was an experience of a lifetime, a truly memorable day.

Lovely Lavenders.... - We had an excellent trip. Although at the fag end of the season still we could find enough lavender fields yet to be harvested and our Guide Signor Donato was very good to provide us enough information about the history geography and cultural perspectives of the region. In a nutshell recommended but one should check the season before which starts from June to August.

Best Lavender Tour Ever :)! - Corine, Coco, was an absolutely brilliant Tour Guide! We spent the entire day hunting for Lavender Fields around the Luberon Valley and even went to a Local Producer at the end :)! Absolutely 'brillante' and can not recommend enough! Perfect blend of fun, new facts and stories along the way, and some pretty cool gems of tiny towns/cities along the way!
All in all, would recommend to anyone coming to Provence and Corine was the best, a true inspiration for Tour Guides anywhere, perfect blend of fun, caring and kind! 5 Stars!

A Beautiful Day in A Beautiful Place - Our guide Pascal was wonderful. He put a lot of care, research, and good humor into the tour. It was clear he greatly valued our experience and our group getting the most out of our time in Provence. We really appreciated the variety of having the scenic fields in the morning but also a town and lake visit - it made it a true day trip!

Exactly as advertised! - This was nice intimate experience with a total of eight people. Our guide took us to three different fields where we were the only people; she knew great spots, providing an opportunity for amazing photos! We stopped for two free hours at Moustiers de Saint Michel (a mountain top village) where we at lunch on our own. We then visited a beautiful lake and went for a (somewhat chilly) swim for an hour, and then returned to town just before 6pm.

An amazing tour with an amazing guide - Coco was such an enthusiastic tour guide who genuinely wanted to share with us the beauty of Provence, especially during the lavender season. She was very engaged and informative the whole time, and was very accommodating with stops as we spotted different photo opportunities along the drive. She went out of the way to help book tables for those on the tour who wanted a sit down lunch at Moustier St Marie, as the busy season meant potentially long wait time at restaurants and cafes. The itinerary was great - we saw lots of lavender fields in full bloom, a picturesque village, and swam in Gorges de Verdun. On the way back Coco also gave us recommendations of restaurants and places to check out in Aix which all turned out to be excellent options. She was so warm and the tour was a great start to my trip in Provence. I loved it so much that I added a Luneron hilltop village tour next day

Lavender tour full day - Lovely lavender! However this tour had lots of driving and we had to back track to find a lavender field that we had already passed. 15 min each way! Knowing that the lavender was being harvested stop when you see a beautiful field. Always a bonus to see others. The farmer stop was extremely disappointing. Basically take a look at the old equipment and listen to an audio about it then come buy some products. This stop was not necessary and would have allowed more time in the city we visited. Didn’t need as much time at the lake but it was beautiful to see from various vantage points. Our guide, Remy, was nice but was quiet compared to our other guides. The speaker in this vehicle was much better than either of our other tours. Likely the half day lavender tour would have been better in hindsight. Thanks.
