Lavender Fields and Provençal Villages of Provence
Meet your guide at your hotel in Nice, Cannes, or Aix-en-Provence and set off on a scenic drive through the Provence countryside, with views of vineyards and rolling hills along the way. Continue to the Valensole Plateau, where you can walk through vast lavender fields in full bloom, capture unforgettable photos, and learn about the history of lavender in Provence. Visit a traditional distillery to see how lavender essential oils are produced and discover their uses. Enjoy free time in a picturesque Provençal village such as Moustiers-Sainte-Marie or Riez, known for its stone streets, local markets, and artisan boutiques. If time allows, take in the turquoise waters of Lac de Sainte-Croix, surrounded by mountains, before beginning the return journey.
