It was great. The road is curvy to go there on a long period it could give car sickness but no one has been so k in the group. Le verdon is pretty but really busy place.

Great tour. You will see Gran Canyon, Waterfalls, Casteliane or other town, enjoy views of Grand Canyon, river and lake from the top of the mountain, have some time at lake to eat and swim in it. Enjoy Lavender fields. Lovely trip and scenery. Our tour guide was excellent.

USA did a great job driving, guiding and supporting all 7 of us. Loved the places we stopped l. The only downside is that one member was late from lunch so we didn’t have time at Lac La Croix to do anything on the water. It would have been nice to be given the option to explore the town a little more in this case, but I know Isa was just following the tour guidelines. So that’s my suggest for the company. Great overall tour!!!
