A superb experience - This sunset tour gives you the chances to see the lavender both under regular sunlight and warm sunset. You can enjoy the two different color tones of the lavender especially for taking pictures.

Fantastic! - The most memorable experience was to, of course, see the vast fields of lavender and the wonder of it all. We were not disappointed!

Wonderful Experience - Experience was just wonderful, we visited 4 different Lavender fields and the best part was the sunset … We were given enough time at each of the field to enjoy the scenic beauty of the fields & take pictures . The Tour Guide also communicated clearly & effectively ..

Disappointing - Some good and some bad. The good was seeing the lavender fields, although going to 3 different locations perhaps wasn't necessary. The bad was we didn't get told the pick up from Marseille was just that, a pick up by a taxi driver and then getting dumped off at Aix au Provence without any explanation of why or what was happening until we got there. Then the guide who didn't even introduce himself forgot a couple left behind so we had to go back and get them. The tour is advertised as a 'sunset tour' yet out of the 7 hour tour we spent no more than 10 minutes and the guide didin't give me enough time to take photo once the sun had set, it was hurry up as we have to get back to Marseille and drop off people we had picked up earlier. We arrived at Valensole and were told we had 45 minutes to site see through the town and have dinner. The 2 restaurants couldn't take us for dinner as they were full, so we ended up not having enough time for dinner. Disappointing

Find an alternative way - Buyer be ware, use a private car or tour guide! The guide was late for departure and the van used DOES not have functional air-conditioning. I would.like a refund.
