We were fortunate to have both a very qualified tour guide and the peak lavender bloom. We visited a number of locations and found many different enjoyable experiences

Laura was very knowledgeable and showed us beautiful private fields of lavender and took us through the beautiful French countryside. Roussilon was also a highlight as it is nice, quaint town with great views. Gordes was also interesting. The whole tour was fantastic!

Our guide was excellent and very informative, we stopped at 2 beautiful lavender fields, took scenic pictures of Gordes, visited Roussillon which was very beautiful, stopped at an Abbey on our way back, well worth doing from Avignon

Lavender and countryside beauty! Enjoyed the walk through Rousillon and seeing the abbey.
Even though the lavender wasn’t in full bloom, it was beautiful. Isabel is a nice guide.

Yanis was knowledgeable about the area and a good driver. We went to 3 lavender fields (including the abbey) and had time to walk around Roussillon. We made a quick stop for pictures in Gordes. The lavender was in bloom & beautiful! This was a wonderful way to see multiple areas in a short time.
Response from Host, Jul 2025
Bonjour,
Thank you for sharing your experience! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the tour with Yanis, he's indeed passionate about the region and always happy to share his knowledge.

This is an excellent tour. Our guide, Emilie, was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and chatty. She made the trip so much better. The trip itself is a great whistle stop tour, but it's a whistle stop tour only. I would have liked to spend more time in these places, but I can always go back.
Response from Host, Jun 2025
Bonjour,
Thank you so much for your kind review! We're thrilled to hear that Emilie made your tour even more special with her knowledge and friendly nature.

A lovely trip with a nice group and a knowledgeable guide. Roussillon is lovely, the Senaque abbey is out of this world, lavender fields are everything you'd expect and more. And you get to see a lot of beautiful nature in between the stops.

The ride was comfortable, the tour guide was quite nice.. the visit to the Lavender fields was not as expected.. i thought we would visit a proper farm and get a proper tour, but we just stopped randomly at any field, and were asked to take our pictures before the owner saw us

We had a great tour guide who was very knowledgeable and friendly. Whilst we managed to visit four beautiful locations, it would have been good to have more time at each place. We appreciate that time for travelling between locations needs to be taken into account, but it did feel rushed at times. Overall, good to see the wonderful sights of Avignon!

Nice tour. Great views and vistas. Rousillon and Gordes. Early June is a bit too soon to get the full effect of the lavender fields, but still quite beautiful. Last part of June would make it great. Good price sport on value.

Purchased based on description. Actual tour was spending 30 minutes at a petro station, 20 minutes at a lavender field, an hour at a city not mentioned in the description. Very disappointed.
Response from Host, Jul 2022
Dear Ana,
we are sorry for this disappointment. Could you give us more details that we identify the tour you did, the day and your name or number reservation, that we do a search with our guide and understand what happened.
thank you in advance.
Best regards

Overall the trip was very good. The trip was well led and the areas visited beautiful. Sadly it was one of the few days in France during our stay where the weather was really bad. So towns like Rousillon and Gourdes that are beautiful were wet and miserable and there was a lot of mist around.
Aminah_B, Jul 2019
The guide was very friendly and on the way to the fields he spoke about the history of Avignon. When we got to the valley he spoke about the start of the farming community that lives there. We had more than enough time to wander around the lavender factory and then we went to the fields. Not once were we rushed and the tour guide even offered to help take our photos. It was raining on and off so we finished the fields quickly voluntarily and headed to the town of Sault. He gave us the option to stay in the town longer or to go to another field after the town, which was super nice. Thankfully it wasn't raining when we went to another field that he found so we were all able to get our pictures! Late July maybe wasn't the best time to go as much of the lavender was harvested but the guide made sure we still got to see great fields.

We travelled from Switzerland specifically to go on a lavender tour. We selected Viatour because we have had many positive experiences in the past. However, we found ourselves on what appeared to be a non-Viator tour. We were waiting at the designated meeting place and the tour guide did not appear until after we had called the office. The tour guide (Jerome) then asked us to describe the itinerary of our trip. We were quite surprised about this. He did not know that we were supposed to visit Senaque Abby during the tour. We set off 15 minutes late and the timing throughout the trip was neither precise nor clear. We visited a traditional lavender distillery which was very enjoyable, but not part of the original itinerary. We did not spend any time visiting any of the villages mentioned in the tour description and we were allotted 2 minutes to take a photo of Senaque Abby. We did have the opportunity to visit three lavender fields in close proximity which was very enjoyable. Overall, the tour felt very rushed and some of the promised activities were omitted.
We would have appreciated being told the tour was not run by Viator.
Rebecca T, Jul 2019
Enjoyed the three stops for lavender fields on the morning excursion. Jérôme was friendly and took our photos. Unfortunately, the Senanque Abbey was closed, so we couldn't enter. Wished the tour could be an hour longer, so we could have time to visit another village (besides Roussillon). Pleasant tour overall!
Patrycja O, Jul 2019
Jean was really helpful throughout the whole tour. The tour shoes you the essentials of the area. Jean had a great knowledge of the sights and was extremely helpful throughout the entire experience. The Abbey was not in full bloom but it was still great to see. Overall a fantastic opportunity to see the fields and get all the insight knowledge.
annsouth, Jun 2019
This was a wonderful tour. One of the fields was beautifully in bloom, However the lavender was not in bloom at the abbey. I think the tour guide should give the option of not going to the abbey, if not in bloom. The only reason to go to the abbey is for the Lavender view. An option of staying longer in the hilltown of Rousillion would have made the tour perfect. Rousillion was magical and we did not have nearly enough time there. I am so glad I booked this tour and would recommend.
Emira_I, Jun 2019
I wish I had done the full day tour. Everything feels rushed to make it back to Avignon within 5 hours. I think if the tour said 6 hours and we were given additional 15-20 minutes per town/village it would have been perfect. I would pay a little extra for a little extra time in each town. But other than that, this tour delivered everything it promised. If I had the time I would do the full day tour, well worth the extra time and money. But if you're in a rush and just need to see some places, then this is perfect for you.
ANGELA_L, Jun 2019
It was a terrible tour and a complete waste of time. In fact, it wasn’t a tour. The guide was more like a driver. He dropped us here and there and said he would be back in 45 min. He barely spoke English. He said the microphone in the van was broken. I would NOT recommend this tour to anyone and, in fact, I am a user of Viator a not and I don’t think I will use them anymore (after the tour we have scheduled for tomorrow) VERY disappointing!

Best visiting time for Lavender in early July. Still an enjoyable trip with Sunflower field and magnificent views.
