The tour was very interesting, the guide spoke perfect English and he was very professional but also funny. He answered all our questions and gave us some good advice about lavender products and their uses. We also took some great pics outside the museum.
– Marta | TripAdvisorA very pretty building filled with lots of old equipment used for distilling the lavender. Your visit starts with an interesting film before you see the exhibits. After that, you can purchase a wide range of lavender products.
– Adventurers | TripAdvisorNot sure we would stop here but so glad we did. They gave a very informative history of lavender and the medical benefits it holds. The guide was excellent as was the staff!
– Kathy M. | TripAdvisorWe thoroughly enjoyed this small but highly informative museum. We learned everything about the growing, harvesting and processing of Lavender. The stills and other machines exhibited were fascinating and the descriptions excellent. Of particular interest was the medicinal value of lavender as well as the gift shop that sold very high-quality products. Definitely not to be missed!
– Maureen C. | TripAdvisorWe enjoyed very much the interesting tour and learned the history of perfume, and lavender oil in particular, in southern France. Fascinating!
– Goldie | TripAdvisorThis place is in such a beautiful landscape. The tour is really nice if you like lavender. They sell authentic lavender products. You can easily spend 2 to 3 hours here. It was really nice to know the history of the Lavender!
