Places to visit

Must-see places in the Verdon

The Verdon is best discovered by combining Lake Sainte-Croix, canyon viewpoints, scenic roads, Moustiers-Sainte-Marie and optional extensions to Valensole or the Luberon.

Lake Sainte-Croix

Lake Sainte-Croix is one of the most iconic places in the Verdon, famous for its turquoise water, natural beaches and spectacular views at the entrance of the gorge. It is an ideal stop for a panoramic break, a short walk, photos or a relaxing moment in an exceptional natural setting. With a private chauffeur, the stop can be included in a smooth itinerary combining Moustiers-Sainte-Marie, Verdon viewpoints and scenic roads adapted to the season.

Turquoise waters • 1–2 h • Panorama, relaxation and photos

Verdon Gorge

The Verdon Gorge is one of the largest canyons in Europe, offering a succession of cliffs, viewpoints, winding roads and impressive landscapes. The visit requires good time management, as distances, stops and visitor numbers can vary significantly depending on the season. A full-day chauffeur service allows you to enjoy the most beautiful areas without driving, parking or planning constraints.

Route des Crêtes

Route des Crêtes is one of the most sought-after routes for admiring the Verdon Gorge from above.

Moustiers-Sainte-Marie

Moustiers-Sainte-Marie is one of the most charming villages at the gateway to the Verdon.

The visit can be combined with Lake Sainte-Croix, scenic roads and Verdon viewpoints as part of a premium private day.
