Marvel at Rome's greatest surviving aqueduct, wander a cliff-top citadel with views to the Alps, and stroll Van Gogh's sun-drenched Saint-Rémy — all in one gloriously curated Provence day. The definitive regional sweep from Avignon.
What to expect
The day opens at the Pont du Gard at its most golden-lit, with time to walk the lower bridge and gaze up at three tiers of Roman precision engineering. Next, the rocky fortress village of Les Baux-de-Provence unfolds across a dramatic limestone plateau — crumbling medieval towers, wild lavender, and vertiginous drops. Saint-Rémy brings a charming market town where Van Gogh painted some of his most iconic canvases; your guide knows every lane. The return drive cuts through vineyards and olive groves, with tastings along the way.
Good to know
Departs from central Avignon; confirm exact pick-up point on booking. Full day runs ~9 hrs — check your ship's all-aboard time and book accordingly. Wear layers; Les Baux plateau is exposed to the Mistral. Pre-booking essential.
