    Thoroughly enjoyable tour

    We had a great time on this tour. Our guide spoke English very well and was friendly, welcoming and funny. She kept to time perfectly and also made sure we heard the bells ringing at the Abbey which was so special. The minibus was lovely and cool and so this tour was great to do during the heatwave. Thoroughly enjoyable.

    Response from the operator: Bonjour, your review just made our day! We're so happy you enjoyed your tour and our guide. Guests like you are the reason why we love what we do. We look forward to seeing you again soon. We're waiting for you for another adventure in Provence, Burgundy, Bordeaux, Loire, Champagne, Paris and Normandy. Team A La Française.

    Great tour! Beautiful French countryside

    Laura was very knowledgeable and showed us beautiful private fields of lavender and took us through the beautiful French countryside. Roussilon was also a highlight as it is nice, quaint town with great views. Gordes was also interesting. The whole tour was fantastic!

    Response from the operator: Bonjour Robert, what a wonderful review! Knowing lavender and our guide Laura-Lyz made your experience special means the world to us. Our team works hard to create memories that last. Book again anytime — we'd love to have you back for another great day out! Team A La Française!

    Excellent morning excursion from Avignon

    Our guide was excellent and very informative, we stopped at 2 beautiful lavender fields, took scenic pictures of Gordes, visited Roussillon which was very beautiful, stopped at an Abbey on our way back, well worth doing from Avignon

    Response from the operator: Bonjour Joseph, Thank you for this nice comment! We are happy that you enjoyed the landscapes of Provence as well as the tour with our guide. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future for another memorable experience! Team A la Française!

    Lavender Small Group Half-Day Trip: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Avignon.

    How much does Lavender Small Group Half-Day Trip cost?

    +

    Prices start at $103 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Avignon usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Lavender Small Group Half-Day Trip take?

    +

    Plan for about 5 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 Avignon is not rushed.

    Is Lavender Small Group Half-Day Trip worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 167 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Avignon, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Lavender Small Group Half-Day Trip?

    +

    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 Lavender Small Group Half-Day Trip suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Lavender Small Group Half-Day Trip?

    +

    Around 58 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 Avignon 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 Avignon and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Lavender Small Group Half-Day Trip 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 Avignon 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 Avignon?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Avignon experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Highlights of Provence in One Day, Chateauneuf du Pape wine tour, Lavender Route - Small-Group Day Trip from Avignon. 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 Avignon?

    +

    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 Avignon?

    +

    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.

    What is included in Lavender Small Group Half-Day Trip?

    +

    Included: Local guide; Photo stops in lavender fields; and Transportation by air-conditioned minivan. Not included: Food and drinks, unless specified; and Hotel pick up / drop off. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Lavender Small Group Half-Day Trip?

    +

    Meet your guide outside Avignon Tourist Office located 41 Cours Jean Jaurès 84000 Avignon. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Lavender Small Group Half-Day Trip offered in?

    +
