Following a pickup at your Avignon hotel between 8am and 8:30am, transfer to the Avignon tourist office and take a seat in your vehicle. At 9am, travel out into the countryside with your guide to begin your tour. The lavender fields are in bloom from mid-June to early August each year, throwing a blanket of color across the rolling hillsides of Provence.
Stop in Aix-en-Provence — famous for its vibrant art scene — then visit Valensole with your guide. Here, stroll among the rows of purple flowers, and inhale the heady scent for which lavender is famous.
Visit the lovely village of Valensole, then continue on to Moustiers-Sainte-Marie — a town widely considered among the prettiest in France and popular for its pottery. Explore winding streets home to traditional potters, and admire fine views over the mighty cliffs towering over the town.
Visit the l’Occitane museum and shop in Manosque, then return in comfort to your departure point in Avignon to conclude your tour.
