Good value for money :) - Our guide Tritan drove us to many beautiful places. Time for this trip is quite short because it takes a lot of time to drive narrow and curvy roads. Friendly guide.

Spectacular views - This is an all day drive tour with two stops in Castellane and Moustiers Sainte Marie. The trip to Moustiers Sainte Marie takes you through the mountains and the gorges with spectacular views. Both of the stops are in very nice little villages. We enjoyed lunch in Castellane. Most of the shops in Moustiers Sainte Marie were closed which I believe is due to the time of year. Our guide Raphael was very good and took us to a spot to observe eagles soaring through the gorge which was very cool. If you are prone to motion sickness this might not be for you as the majority of the tour is driving through winding mountain roads. We had a great time and took many pictures.

Easy way to discover the area - Great day with many points of view and enough time to visit the village. Even if it was not the lavender season, the information was still very interesting

Poor experience with booking spoiled and stressed our trip. - Our tour guide Wagner was very nice and professional. The vehicle was nice and clean. The views were awesome. This company caused us a lot of unnecessary stress due to poor communication. We never got any information about pick up times or pick up places even after numerous calls by us and/or messages. We even called Viator for help twice. We actually thought we weren’t going since we were not contacted. The info on the ticket said 8 am and we heard nothing nor knew nothing until 8:30 am the day of the trip. Never were we told a meeting place in advance of the trip. Then the company asked us to not be rude when we communicated we were asking for a refund. Not a way to run a good business. We will focus on independent travel for the rest of our trip even though we had planned on a booking two more day trips. French Riviera touring. Not a positive experience overall.
