Overview

I’m inviting you to spend a really sensational day. Probably one of the most beautiful you'll have in Provence.

I'll take you to one of my favorite spots in Gorges du Verdon where I go with my family and friends.

The best way to explore this unic place is to have a boat ride in the canyon, the biggest in all Europe. You'll drive your little private electric boat having a picnic with some local wines. You can jump to the water or just unwind admiring the nature (2 hours easy drive, very calm water).

Then we'll stop on few lavender fields off the beaten path. If you have a chance, you'll be the only one strolling there and taking pictures. Their beauty is really indescribable, even after the blooming period!

The next stop is the perched UNESCO village Sainte-Croix with its incredible view of the Sainte Croix lake. Free time for strolling or beach time by the lake.

*In case of bad weather, instead of the boat, I'll drive you to the charming Moustiers-Sainte-Marie village.
