About this tour

The eight-hour itinerary is flexible—your guide will adjust stops and pacing based on what interests you most, whether that's photography, walking, or simply soaking in the scenery.

What to expect
Your guide collects you in the morning and heads inland toward the canyons. The roads wind through dramatic geological formations where the river has carved deep, colourful gorges into the landscape. You'll have time to walk, photograph, and absorb the scale of it all. Entrevaux comes next—a compact medieval stronghold with cobbled lanes and river views that rewards slow exploration. Lunch is your choice; your guide knows good local spots in quieter villages. Afternoon timing depends on your energy and interests. The terrain is accessible for most fitness levels, though some sections involve gentle walking.
Good to know
Bring comfortable shoes for uneven village paths. Prams work fine for some areas; check with your guide beforehand. Meals and drinks are at your own expense. The route is negotiable—discuss preferences with your guide when you meet.
