About this experience
Treat yourself to this famous tourist hotspot (Les Gorges du Verdon). Drive into the deepest gorges in Europe until 700 meters deep. Observe a very rich fauna composed of 50 species of mammals : (deer, felines, saurians, etc.), and 180 species of birds, especially the golden eagle, and the griffon vulture. Discover the wildlife and enjoy unforgettable landscapes in the heart of the Alps, admire the turquoise waters of Lake Sainte Croix, visit the 5th-century medieval village of Moustiers Sainte Marie, and stroll in the lavender fields on Valensoles plateau. End with a wine tasting (optional). This is not a tour where you spend most of your time driving in traffic jams! It's not a chase like many other tours. I built the tour to avoid this problem, you will have enough time to enjoy each spot with the help and instructions of a professional guide.

Mother Daughter Trip
The trip is a long way from the beaches but was worth it! The gorges are beautiful and you can take a motor or pedal boat out which we did. We swam in the lakes. Gorgeous views. We stopped at a quaint medieval town for lunch, drove through the La gender fields and stopped to greet some sweet donkeys on a farm nearby. There were plenty of stops along the way and our guide Nabil was fantastic. Knowledgeable and helpful and friendly.

Why this scores 50
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Gorges du Verdon and Lavender Fields Full Day Tour from Nice: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Nice.
How much does Gorges du Verdon and Lavender Fields Full Day Tour from Nice cost?
+
Prices start at $1286 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Nice usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Gorges du Verdon and Lavender Fields Full Day Tour from Nice take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Nice is not rushed.
Is Gorges du Verdon and Lavender Fields Full Day Tour from Nice worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Nice, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Gorges du Verdon and Lavender Fields Full Day Tour from Nice?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Gorges du Verdon and Lavender Fields Full Day Tour from Nice suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Gorges du Verdon and Lavender Fields Full Day Tour from Nice?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Nice can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Nice and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Gorges du Verdon and Lavender Fields Full Day Tour from Nice start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Nice within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Nice?
+
On Outty we rank every Nice experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include ★ Walking Tour of Old Nice and Castle Hill, NO DIET CLUB - Unique Local Food in Nice !, Nice City Segway Sightseeing Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Nice?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Nice?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
