Veronica våran Guide va helt fantastisk. Kunde mycket om lavendel, hade koll vart blomningen fortfarande var och tog oss till dessa platser. Berättade även mycket om annat både historiskt och nutid. Vi var verkligen super nöjda.

We got to see the two kinds of lavender farmed in the area and visited 3 beautiful Luberon villages. Nico also showed us the distillation process of harvested lavendar. We had more than enough time to explore the villages and had a wonderful lunch today. The tour was relaxed and we were able to soak into the scenic views of the field, the houses and the cute streets. We really enjoyed our trip and would recommend this tour to others.

Our guide Nicolas was very patient with us, a wonderful guide with great initiative, and the lavender fields he brought us to were amazing. The villages Gordes and Roussilon were so charming.

Our guide Nicolas shared many fun facts and history about the places we visited. He also gave advices on good photo-taking spots with spectacular view of village and lavender field scenery. Transportation was provided by a Volkswagen 8-seater minivan, which gave us a cosy ride.
