Great day tour in Haute Provence, France - Wonderful day tour with Mario s our guide. The Gorges and mountains were really beautiful and the village of Moustiers charming but what really made the day was our guide’s knowledge of the area, his enthusiasm and charismatic sense of humor. Out of many tours over the years this one was overall our most enjoyable.

OUR WONDER EXPERINCE AT THE FORGES DU VERDON - This American couple was thrilled with the beauty and natural magnificence of The Gorges. The gentle water experience from our pedal boat was far beyond our original impression. As our small pedal boat brought us to another natural wonder, we realized just how magnificent this unique venture was. All others in their boats seemed to feel the same, as our friendly waves brought us together in our delight. Safe and calm for young children. Helpful staff.

A Wonderful Urban-Escape Day! - As a solo traveler, I had a wonderful day to see beautiful views along the canvas, had lunch by the waterfall, and enjoy some time in Sainte-Croix lake. The tour is well planned, what you need to do is just to follow the guide and enjoy. Mike is a great guide, he is very experienced, knowledgable, and helpful. The only thing can be improved is there are 2 guests in our group missed the email about pickup time, results in they showed up late and we have to go back to pick them up. It'll be better if they call out in the booking page that you need to pay attention to email one day before, the pick up time might be different, and the operator try to confirm with guests to make sure they are aware of the change.

Worthwhile - Nikola was our driver. A great trip. He kept guests informed and had an interesting story for almost every occasion. The trip itself is indeed a long one but worth it because it covers not only the gorge but some of the interesting villages along the way. I would do it again.

Long day but worth the many different vistas - The waterfalls, the deep gorge view, and paddling on the lake plus eating great food in the little towns!

Great trip - We had a great trip with Mario. He showed so much and did a great job driving in the mountains. It would be nice if he had used some kind of microphone as it was very hard to hear him in the very back of the minivan

Beautiful scenery. - It’s a very beautiful trip. I would like let people know that you spend a great deal of time in the van and the roads are very twisty so if anyone suffers from motion sickness you definitely should take something in advance. But the driver was very nice and made a stops so we could use the restroom and stretch our legs.

Beautiful Village and Scenery - I had always wanted to go to Gorge and knew that it was alot of driving. Moustiers Sainte Marie (which is the village) near the Gorge is amazing. Bruno the driver was very good. Not only was he friendly, entertaining he was also a very safe driver. My recommendations would be to make more time at the Village and whilst the transport was clean and good, I think a bigger mini bus with bigger windows would be much better, due to the time you spend travelling and the wonderful views you can see.
