Lavender tour to Valensole from Marseille

5/5
2 reviews

Embark on a mesmerising journey from Marseille, where you'll be greeted by a friendly local guide. Board a comfortable minivan and set off towards the Valensole Plateau in Provence. As you traverse the scenic routes that meander through lavender fields, prepare to be captivated by the spectacular views.

The Valensole Plateau is renowned for its cultivation of "lavandin". Your knowledgeable guide will enlighten you about the history, traditions, and culture surrounding this "blue gold". Throughout your lavender tour, the guide will ensure you don’t miss out on any photo opportunities, showcasing the lavender fields in all their glory. You'll also have the chance to visit a local producer who will share insights into the iconic flower of Provence and its various products, such as essential oil, lavender honey, and other lavender-based specialities.

Your journey continues with a stop at Moustiers-Ste-Marie, a village nestled high in the limestone cliffs, famed for its earthenware workshops. Enjoy some free time to explore and grab lunch. In the afternoon, seize the opportunity to capture awe-inspiring photos of the Verdon River's crystal clear waters and beautiful surroundings. Finally, your guide will escort you back to Marseille.

    Elias was a superb host. Very knowledgeable of Marseille and Provence region. He took us to many beautiful lavender fields and villages. He was fun and engaging. I would highly recommend this tour. The bus was comfortable and air conditioned.
