From Avignon: Lavender Day and Villages of Provence
Overview
⚠️ New vehicle from March 2026!
Hello dear visitor, my name is Arnaud and will be your native Guide of this magnificent Provence. Among the 5 tours I offer, I take you today to the lavender fields of Provence and to 2 typical villages that are Gordes and Roussillon.
This tour will alternate between photo breaks in the lavender fields near the villages of Velleron and Oppède, but also at the emblematic Abbey of Sénanque, and visits to emblematic villages of the region.
I will accompany you for the visit of Roussillon and its facades entirely ochre, and you will walk freely in Gordes, built in dry stone on a rocky promontory. We will also stop at the viewpoint on this iconic village of Provence.
In the meantime, we picnic in the shade, with a beautiful view of the Luberon valley. This picnic will consist only of fresh produce from local farms.
