Overview
Because if you go to the lavender fields to take pictures, the golden light is between 8pm and 9:30pm. During the day the light is very strong and it can be very hot. We will leave Aix-en-Provence at 4pm so we can catch the nice sunset when we get to Valensole plateau. The trip to get there is around 45 minutes.
You will be surrounded by fields of lavender, the famous Provençal scented plant, abound here.
We will also stop in a lavender distillery along the way where you have the opportunity to buy products directly from the producers; and we will leave you some free time in the village of Valensole.
The best time for lovers of typical Provençal landscapes to visit is middle of June to end of July, when Valensole plateau is awash with beautiful blue lavender in bloom. It's a sight – and scent – to behold!

It was a very nice tour, our guide showed us many fields even before sunset and when it was cloudy and rainy during sunset hour, he tried to find the best lavender field possible for the views and it actually went really well. We ended up seeing the lavenders at the golden hour light with a rainbow on top of them! Thank you Silvio!
A lavender dream…

There are no words to do this justice. It was everything and more. I was truly immersed in seas of lavender, buzzing bees…butterflies…and the golden sunset. Honestly one of the highlights of my travels over the years. It was a bucket list holiday and this topped it off. Thank you.
Wonderful experience!

This was a great experience and our tour guide was great! It was so wonderful to see the lavender fields and the sunflowers. And seeing them at sunset was fabulous. The stop at the farm was so nice. It was a pretty long tour and I think I would’ve preferred 4 hours in total instead of 6+ hours. It was a lovely experience and I will recommend to others.
