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.
