Discover the Breathtaking Gorges du Verdon and Lavender Fields on a Private Day Trip


Prepare for an awe-inspiring journey to the Gorges du Verdon, often referred to as the Grand Canyon of Europe. This spectacular natural wonder features deep limestone canyons and turquoise waters that create some of the most dramatic scenery in France. Your private tour will take you along the winding cliffside roads, offering numerous vantage points where you can stop to admire the sheer scale and beauty of this geological masterpiece carved by the Verdon River over millions of years.


The tour also includes visits to the charming alpine villages of Castellane and Moustiers-Sainte-Marie. Moustiers, in particular, is renowned for its stunning location nestled between two cliffs and its traditional pottery heritage. Walking through these villages offers a glimpse into the traditional way of life in the Alps, where time seems to move more slowly. You will have the chance to explore the local shops, admire the historic architecture, and enjoy the tranquil mountain atmosphere.


Depending on the season, you will be treated to the sight of vast, fragrant lavender fields that define the landscape of Provence. These iconic purple fields provide a perfect backdrop for photography and a sensory experience that is truly unique to this region. Additionally, you will have the opportunity to take a refreshing swim in the crystal-clear waters of the nearby lake, allowing you to cool off and fully immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the area.


As with all our private tours, the day is entirely flexible and can be modified to suit your preferences. Your professional guide will provide suggestions to ensure you make the most of your time, whether you want to focus on hiking, photography, or simply relaxing in the picturesque villages. This personalized approach guarantees a unique and unforgettable experience, allowing you to explore the natural wonders of the Verdon Gorge at your own pace.

Some people's pictures are not of the Gorge they are of the lake at the bottom 30 minutes away. Just look at the geography of the land of you aren't sure. There is no lake. The pin poin is actually the very top. Please see my pictures for actual Verdon Gorge.

Breathtaking scenery and an unforgettable experience! We had an amazing time at Gorges du Verdon. The views are absolutely stunning—the water is a perfect turquoise, and the surrounding cliffs make it feel like something out of a postcard. We rented a paddle boat and explored deep into the canyon, but there are also kayaks and electric boats available if you prefer. The water was refreshing and perfect for a swim, and if you’re feeling adventurous, there are plenty of rocks to jump off of for a bit of extra fun. We went in the morning, which I highly recommend to avoid crowds and enjoy the calm atmosphere. The rental process was quick, with hardly any waiting, but make sure to bring an ID or driver’s license—it’s required to rent equipment. The staff were friendly, and the boats were in good condition. The price was very fair for the time we had on the water. There are also nearby cafes, restrooms, and parking, making it easy to spend a half or full day here. Whether you want a peaceful paddle, a swim in crystal-clear water, or a bit of cliff-jumping adventure, Gorges du Verdon is an absolute must-visit.
