Description

Start your tour by visiting Arles, a city listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. With a wealth of Roman relics, Arles long inspired the famous painter Van Gogh! Enjoy a guided walking tour and discover its arenas, its amphitheatre as well as the places painted by Van Gogh: the Yellow House, the Town Hall Garden and the Café de la nuit.

Then head to the village of Les Baux de Provence. Built on a rocky outcrop, this village offers spectacular views of the Provençal countryside. Take advantage of your free time to visit this authentic Provençal town! Be charmed by its authenticity and its pretty narrow streets! You will see the Carrières de Lumières which huses the best of Picasso (not open from January to March). Thanks to the lights and sounds, you'll be plunged into the artist's universe! 

Your next stop is to the village of Saint Rémy de Provence! You will stop to photograph the famous "plateau des antiques", a listed natural site.  It is characterised by its triumphal arch and its Roman mausoleum. Located in the heart of an olive field, you will be charmed by this place so often painted by Van Gogh!

Finish the circuit by minibus by visiting the wonderful city of Orange. Enjoy a visit to its Roman theatre (admission ticket and audio guide). Stop off at Châteauneuf-du-Pape and admire the sweeping views of the Rhone Valley! 

At the end of the day, you will return to Avignon accompanied by your driver.

Through this tour, explore the most beautiful villages of Provence and discover the wines which have brought fame to the region!
