Great visit with SIMON, very kind, simple, and efficient! Price of the visit + product in the shop accessible to everyone, small
Fun guide and a really interesting tour, we recommend it!
Not too crowded with tourists and a pleasant visit. The guides are great. We discover lavender, all the senses are awakened. I will try the cosmetics activity soon. I recommend Le Mas en Provence whether you are from the region or not.
1-hour guided tour at the Mas: welcome with explanations on the qualities of the different lavenders, walk on the land, stages of distillation in front of the machine, and a video on cultivation. Very dynamic guide who was available throughout the traveling tour. On-site shop and food truck with picnic tables allow you to extend this sensory break.
Sylvain introduced us to the production of the oils in a professional and charming way.
Vielen herzlichen Dank für Ihre schöne Bewertung! Es freut mich sehr, dass Ihnen die Führung gefallen hat. Die Herstellung unserer ätherischen Öle verständlich, lebendig und mit etwas Charme zu vermitteln, ist für mich immer eine große Freude. Vielen Dank für Ihre netten Worte! Bis bald im MAS! Sylvain
Very interesting visit, both in terms of explanations and practical remedies. Guide passionate about his job and full of humor. Great family activity.
Merci beaucoup pour ce très beau retour ! Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié la richesse des explications, les conseils autour de nos plantes et surtout la passion et l’humour de notre guide. Faire découvrir notre métier de façon vivante, accessible et conviviale, pour les petits comme pour les grands, est exactement l’esprit du MAS. Merci pour votre recommandation en famille ! À bientôt au MAS ! Sylvain
Very nice visit and friendly guide. Too bad that in August the lavender is no longer purple... better to go in June. The explanation of the oils and the extraction was interesting
Grazie mille per la vostra recensione! Siamo felici che abbiate apprezzato la visita, la simpatia della guida e soprattutto la scoperta della distillazione e degli oli essenziali. È vero, per ammirare la lavanda nei suoi colori più intensi consigliamo di venire da metà giugno. Ma il MAS non è solo campi di lavanda: durante tutto l’anno raccontiamo il nostro lavoro, dalla coltivazione delle piante aromatiche fino alla loro distillazione. A presto al MAS! Sylvain
Great welcome, professional and fun guided tour
Merci beaucoup pour votre retour ! Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié l’accueil et la visite. Pro et fun, c’est exactement l’esprit que nous aimons donner à nos visites : apprendre, comprendre notre métier et nos plantes, mais toujours dans la bonne humeur ! À bientôt au MAS ! Sylvain
The site is magnificent, the guided tour is a treat, Simon (the guide) delighted us because he masters his subject perfectly and knows how to convey his knowledge with lightness punctuated by humor. The owner we met is a passionate person of extreme kindness. The whole team is pleasant. I 100% recommend this tour, which is worth it!
Merci infiniment pour ce superbe commentaire ! Quel plaisir de lire que vous avez apprécié aussi bien le cadre du MAS que la visite. Nous transmettrons avec grand plaisir vos compliments à Simon, qui sera ravi de savoir que sa pédagogie et son humour ont contribué à cette belle expérience. Merci également pour vos mots envers Gaël et toute l'équipe : ils nous touchent sincèrement. Au plaisir de vous accueillir de nouveau au MAS en Provence, peut-être pour notre atelier de création de parfum naturel. Sylvain
It was really an interesting tour with good information. It also wasn't so long that one might lose interest. The few euros are well invested and you still learn something about the area.
Vielen Dank für Ihre tolle Bewertung! Es freut uns sehr, dass Ihnen die Führung gefallen hat und Sie sie als informativ und angenehm empfunden haben. Wir würden uns freuen, Sie bald wieder im MAS en Provence begrüßen zu dürfen, vielleicht zu unserem Workshop zur Herstellung eines natürlichen Parfums. Sylvain
