When to visit Provence
Lavender season
The fields of Valensole bloom from late June to mid-July. Outside these weeks, our lavender tours swap the fields for the Verdon, Moustiers and a distillery or vineyard.

Provençal markets run in the morning. Tell us the day of your tour and we build the route around the market that is on.
