It was a fantastic day in Provence! :) I saw a lot - Sault, Roussillon & Gourdes and our great & humorous guide (Thomas) made several stops with us in lavender fields, so that you could enjoy the atmosphere and take souvenir photos! :) We also visited a lavender distillery and the market in Sault - simply wonderful! On the drive through the Luberon National Park you have a great view! This tour is highly recommended! :)

Our tour guide was absolutely wonderful and knowledgeable. He shared information about Marseille during the drive to the countryside. We saw multiple lavender fields, lookout points with plenty of time for pictures. The two villages were a great part of the trip as well-each with its own character and charm. There was enough time to eat, shop and explore. We had thought about renting a car but saw much more of the region with the tour!

We had a great guide. Jeremy gave us a lot of time for photos and tries to find beautiful lavel fields at the time of the year. He was able to answer all of our questions. The 3 villages were beautiful and we had enough time to look at them.
