Description
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 unique place is to have a boat ride in the canyon, the biggest in Europe. You'll drive your little private electric boat while having a picnic with some local wines. You can jump into the water or just unwind admiring nature (an easy 2-hour boat ride, very calm water).
Then we'll stop at a 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 heritage Sainte-Croix-du-Verdon village 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.
