Private Full Day To Manosque, Valensole, Moustiers Ste Marie And Lake Ste Croix
Private Full-Day to Manosque, Valensole, Moustiers Ste Marie and Lake Ste Croix
Discover the charm and natural beauty of the Alpes de Haute-Provence on this full-day experience through quiet medieval villages and fragrant lavender fields. Led by an English-speaking guide who accompanies you throughout the day, this guided tour includes live commentary and local insight to enrich your journey.
Begin in the picturesque village of Moustiers-Sainte-Marie, perched on cliffside terraces and renowned for its centuries-old pottery tradition, especially the delicate tin-glazed faience. Explore the charming lanes and learn about the town's artistic heritage and dramatic setting.
Continue to Manosque, the largest town in the region, for a visit to the original L'Occitane en Provence factory. Discover how this iconic brand blends local ingredients and time-honored techniques to produce its celebrated cosmetics.
Next, take in the rolling purple fields and sweeping views of Valensole, famous for its lavender cultivation and rustic beauty. Walk through the heart of the village, browse boutique shops and cafes, and admire the restored houses with their traditional wrought-iron balconies. Near the central fountain, you'll find a simple sundial that's stood for over a century.
While the focus of this tour is on scenic landscapes and Provencal culture, rather than historic landmarks, your guide will share stories about lavender farming, local customs, and regional life that bring this beautiful part of France to life.
This relaxed journey offers a perfect balance of natural beauty, small-town charm, and cultural discovery.
Please Note: Vehicles available for this tour accommodate groups of up to 8, 22, or 40 passengers maximum. Groups with more than 30 guests may be accommodated upon request. Please consider this information when booking.
