Gorges du Verdon Private Tour

Overall this was a great trip. The landscape is incredible and well worth the long day and many hours in the car. We did several photo op stops which was very appreciated.

However, the stops at the two villages are very short. 40 minutes in Castellane and only an hour in Saint-Marie, which is also the lunch stop. We had a sit down meal which meant we were left with around 20 minutes to look around and get back to the car. So do yourself a favour and grab something on the go so you have as much time as possible to explore this gorgeous place.

The lake is amazing. We went swimming but didn't rent a boat because the line was very long and the water was crowded with boat traffic. If you swim, consider beach shoes as the shore and bottom of the lake are pebbles that are painful to walk on.

Our driver was lovely but a maniac on the road. This might be par for the course in France.

Wagoner was an awesome tour guide. He was accommodating to our needs and tailored the tour to highlight the areas in which we were most interested. We were lucky enough to travel when the lavender fields were in full bloom. They were stunning! We are also glad we didn’t skip the Gorges du Verdon while visiting the South of France. More beautiful views.

We are a mom with a 22 and 27 year old daughters who took the tour and we all agreed it was a wonderful day. Have your camera ready. This is a great tour for taking lots of photos.

Fantastic day trip. Our guide/driver Mario was fantastic- very knowledgeable about the region, and he adjusted our itinerary so we could have more time at the lake. We saw waterfalls, beautiful quaint villages, breathtaking canyon views, Provence countryside, and of course the stunning Lake St Croix. Mario made us feel so welcome and comfortable.

It was a nice day but not what I expected. The second half of the day is much more memorable than the first half. The trip involves a lot of driving. The first stop was a waterfall where we stayed for 10 mins. Then we went to Castellane for 35 mins, saw some beautiful views from the top of the mountain, then the lavender fields for awhile and swimming in the lake for an hour. Either bring your lunch or plan to buy it to go in Castellane.
