A must do tour!! - This experience with our host Jessie was one of the best tours we have done in Aix en Provence. You had time to do the steps to the church, which was fabulous, and time to have lunch and explore village. And then the beautiful views of the gorge.

Great view, mass tourism - The view of the gorge is fantastic and the trail is super professionally paved. The forest is pretty too. But it's just too touristy for my taste.

Scary drive but beautiful - Great places to visit BUT I do wish the tour driver had had both hands on the steering wheel especially while driving through the gorge! If anything had been around the corner we would have all gone off the cliff! No margin for error! steep dangerous raod and way too fast
