Gorges Du Verdon Private Tour

Wonderful itinerary and tour, but the driver/guide (who we really liked) spoke so softly that we couldn't hear her very well. She really needs to use a microphone. Sp we missed a lot of her commentary. Otherwise, I would highly recommend this tour.

We went on this tour as part of our honeymoon and feel lucky to have had Raphael as our guide. He was an exceptional tour guide and driver - drove safely and in a way that helped to prevent motion sickness, and he was great at explaining various parts of where we passed by and stopped at. It was a beautiful tour all around, visiting all the quaint towns and beautiful mountains, rivers and lakes along the way. He was very patient and did well with accommodating other participants that might have had any language barriers. He would always point out scenic parts to pay attention to. Very exceptional!

Beautiful views! Gorgeous landscape, lakes and streams. Very friendly and safe driver! Informative conversation about area.

Pick up was on time and everything ran super smoothly, which made the day stress-free from the start. We got to see so many little gems along the way that I never would have discovered on my own, and the views of the Alps were absolutely unreal. Honestly, it felt like something out of a postcard. Our guide was so fun, knowledgeable, and really made the whole experience feel personal. I left with great memories, tons of photos, and a big smile. Definitely worth the time, would recommend to anyone visiting, 10/10!

I joined a group tour this summer to see the lavender fields and go on a lake cruise, and it was absolutely amazing! The moment we arrived at the lavender fields, I was blown away by the endless sea of purple—it looked like something straight out of a fairytale! The air smelled so fresh and calming, and every photo turned out Instagram-perfect 📸💜 The lake cruise was the perfect follow-up. With the sun sparkling on the water and a gentle breeze in the air, it felt so peaceful and relaxing. Sitting on the boat, surrounded by nature and scenic views, I could finally just breathe and enjoy the moment. The tour was super well-organized, and our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and even helped us take great photos (bonus points!). It was such a stress-free way to travel. If you’re looking for a summer trip that’s both relaxing and full of stunning views, I highly recommend this kind of tour. Lavender and lakes? Yes, please!

Amazing tour with Raphael. We enjoyed Castellane, the visit to St. Croix Lake, the visit to the moustiers St Marie, and the lavender fields. He was very engaging and accommodating. He also helped us take some great photos.

A nice and chilling tour overall. Beautiful views and quite a few memorable visits to some local villages. Hopefully can stay a bit longer in the lavender haze.

Raphael was amazing! Beautiful day and amazing tour guide. Very happy! Thank you so much. Highly recommend this tour...

We loved this tour. It was a very interesting drive out and back but totally worth it because it is a great destination. The tour driver was warm and friendly and made this tour extra special.

Bruno was our guide, we had a wonderful time during the tour. He took us through incredible towns, giving us his knowledge and enthusiasm about each place. Great tour to go places that otherwise you wouldn’t visit and that are completely worth it.

Overall this was a great trip. The landscape is incredible and well worth the long day and many hours in the car. We did several photo op stops which was very appreciated. However, the stops at the two villages are very short. 40 minutes in Castellane and only an hour in Saint-Marie, which is also the lunch stop. We had a sit down meal which meant we were left with around 20 minutes to look around and get back to the car. So do yourself a favour and grab something on the go so you have as much time as possible to explore this gorgeous place. The lake is amazing. We went swimming but didn't rent a boat because the line was very long and the water was crowded with boat traffic. If you swim, consider beach shoes as the shore and bottom of the lake are pebbles that are painful to walk on. Our driver was lovely but a maniac on the road. This might be par for the course in France.

Wagoner was an awesome tour guide. He was accommodating to our needs and tailored the tour to highlight the areas in which we were most interested. We were lucky enough to travel when the lavender fields were in full bloom. They were stunning! We are also glad we didn’t skip the Gorges du Verdon while visiting the South of France. More beautiful views. We are a mom with a 22 and 27 year old daughters who took the tour and we all agreed it was a wonderful day. Have your camera ready. This is a great tour for taking lots of photos.

Fantastic day trip. Our guide/driver Mario was fantastic- very knowledgeable about the region, and he adjusted our itinerary so we could have more time at the lake. We saw waterfalls, beautiful quaint villages, breathtaking canyon views, Provence countryside, and of course the stunning Lake St Croix. Mario made us feel so welcome and comfortable.

Everytjing absolutely wonderful! Exveptional. Every stop worth it. The landscapes breathtaking. Bruno made the ride very enjoyable with his jokes. This is a must do tour if you are in Nice. Dont skip this one.

It was a nice day but not what I expected. The second half of the day is much more memorable than the first half. The trip involves a lot of driving. The first stop was a waterfall where we stayed for 10 mins. Then we went to Castellane for 35 mins, saw some beautiful views from the top of the mountain, then the lavender fields for awhile and swimming in the lake for an hour. Either bring your lunch or plan to buy it to go in Castellane.

Laurent was punctual, friendly, and knowledgeable! Our tour to Provence was very serene Laurent's laid back personality made us feel like we were driving with an old family friend. He explained the facts about nature and history in such a nuanced way. It was wonderful how we ended our tour with the lavender field. We had a great time getting to know Provence, and him as well! He timed out our stops perfectly, and was easy to work with when we wanted to change some things around. He was very helpful as well. If you want to tour Provence, ASK FOR LAURENT.

We had a wonderful time on our tour to the Verdon Gorge. We booked a private tour. Our guide provided lots of history along with other interesting information and let us dictate the flow of our day.

Scenery is excellent, A+. Little villages are nice stops, also. This was a trip that we would not have attempted as independent travelers with a rental car due to the switchbacks and rural setting. My only suggestion for improvement is that the guide, although friendly, acted entirely as a driver and provided no commentary - was not a professional guide, as anticipated. That aspect was disappointing and thus, I can't give the trip 5 stars.

Guide Raphael made all the difference on our tour! It was great!!!

Gouda is our tour guide and driver, people are very enthusiastic, supplemented us with a lot of geographic knowledge of the French coastal cities, along the way will also ask us if we need a rest or a toilet, will also recommend a good restaurant to us

The scenery is beautiful. Buying a handmade ceramic plate in Santa Maria is the best gift Gouda Tour Guide 👍👍
