Description
Verdon Canyon and Lavender field, private tour
The Verdon is rightly considered as the most beautiful canyon in Europe. Thanks to its exceptional beauty, it is now officially listed as one of the « Great Sites of France ». The canyon was carved by the turquoise Verdon river over 2 million years, and reaches a depth of more than 2000 feet (700 meters).
The drive will take us along the most spectacular stretch of the Canyon, during which you will experience this unforgettable and majestic landscape. With a bit of luck you will see eagles and vultures circling around the area.
Because I am rather demanding towards myself, I propose you the most fabulous itinerary, among the 4 existing roads, of having done it on foot, by bike and by car
