Lovely tour in nature with visits of waterfalls and small cute village. Raphael made sure we were entertained all the way - it was fun, interesting and beautiful! Water activities were coolest bonus!
Beautiful! The route was interesting and well planned. The guide was great in all ways. The views were breathtaking and exciting.
Most of the tour is spent traveling to each destination so thats my only negative. Bruno is such a kind, funny and energetic person> and each location was great to see
We went as a family of four in early August 2026. The drive up was really scenic and the roads were perfect drivable, something the region doesn’t guarantee. We booked 2 hours electric boat hire for 1pm. I am glad we did as there were huge queues and many disappointed people. 2 hours was just right for a relaxing, slow, cruise down the gorge and around the lake. A few points. 1. It is very busy. Constantly dodging pedalos, kayaks, swimmers etc: 2. It is as lovely as it looks. 3. We saw people struggling on pedalos as it’s a long way there and back. 4. There is minimal shade. 5. You can buy drinks and food there, not cheap but not as bad as it could be. We paid €7 for a hotdog and €3 for soft drinks. 6. You are not allowed to jump off the electric boats. 7. The water is lovely for a swim. All in all a fabulous day we all loved.
The lake of Sainte-Croix is the main destination for the tour and it’s beautiful! Bruno was our guide on this tour - he has a good heart and was trying to get us to as many destinations as possible, but was often difficult to understand - there was a language barrier and hence confusion we had to overcome. The drive is through windy roads and not for everyone, but once we get to the lake, its makes up for the long drive and the difficulties. Overall a great trip, but only for those with resilience and a lot of patience.
We really had a great time on this tour. Our tour guide Nicole was a terrific driver. The tour contains a lot of driving, almost all of it on narrow very winding roads that can leave the folks (8, plus the tour guide) in the van getting a bit car sick, so if you have any issues with car sickness, please take meds, or you might want to second guess attending. That said, Nicole was a terrific at making the experience smooth for everyone, she is a great technical driver. The tour contained a stop every hour, or so… 1st stop at a waterfall viewing platform, a couple of very nice villages. one of which we all ate at a local restaurant on your own. The final stop was at the lake for a swim, the water was nice, and the spot was very popular with the locals, so it was fun watching everyone. We really didn’t have enough time to rent a paddle boat due to the crowds, due to the 40C temps. The “beach” is also rocky so bring aqua socks, or sandals. The guide/tour operator are very strict on making sure you do not return to the van with a wet suit, make sure to bring a dry set to wear, and a towel! We had a great time, but I would be remiss if I didn’t mention an awkward moment between Nicole and two gusts concerning shutting the van sliding door, although the tour guide continued to want her to open/close the doors, and operate the seats to allow access to the rear seats. Nicole complained the the two gusts should have closed to door, to which the gusts apologized, but the the tour guide continued on by saying it was “common sense”, it made the rest of the tour a bit weird. As a last word on this tour… if you really want to see Verdon Gorge (which is beautiful), be prepared for a long day!
A breathtaking experience, wonderful places, and an excellent guide who explained everything to us in the smallest detail. And I was with Raphael.
Really great excursion! Our guide (Elton) was very nice, told us a lot, and was super responsive to the group's wishes. Thank you!
Marion was our guide and she was lovely. Very informative sharing the history of things and very helpful. Was on time at all pick ups and helped get us a pedal o at the gorge. Would highly recommend this trip, and with Marion. Thank you
The Verdon Gorge is really worth the detour! The road is quite long, but the landscapes all along the journey and once there are absolutely magnificent. Small tip: if you are prone to motion sickness, plan your medication or your usual solutions before leaving, because the road is very winding...
