The bucket-list things to do — and who runs each one.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, who runs it, and how to book it direct — so you can weigh it against your ship’s excursion and pick what suits you.
Step inside one of the best-preserved medieval castles in all of France, rising dramatically above the Rhône. A private expert guide brings the court of Good King René alive in chambers few visitors truly understand.
Hidden deep in the Montagnette hills, this living Premonstratensian abbey is famous for its aromatic herbal liqueur and medieval chapel. A rare chance to explore a working monastery in fragrant Provençal scrubland.
Go behind the scenes on a working Provençal truffle farm in the foothills of Les Alpilles, just minutes from Tarascon. Hunt with trained dogs, then savour a luxury tasting lunch — the ultimate Provence food bucket-list moment.
Perch atop the most dramatic village in Provence, then descend into a vast ancient quarry transformed into a cathedral of projected art. Voted unmissable by every serious Provence traveller, and just 20 minutes from Tarascon.
Discover the mythical medieval heart of Tarascon on a private expert-led walk: the Romanesque church sheltering the tomb of Saint Martha, the ancient city gates, and the legend of the fearsome Tarasque beast.
Seek out one of Provence's most perfectly preserved Romanesque chapels, hidden in the garrigue between Tarascon and Les Alpilles, on a private half-day scenic drive through quintessential Provençal landscape.
