Embark on an unforgettable day trip in Provence, beginning with a rendezvous with your guide in Marseille. From there, you'll set off to explore the UNESCO World Heritage sites of this beautiful region.
Your journey commences in the Alpilles mountain range, where the medieval village of Les Baux de Provence awaits. Perched on a rocky spur overlooking the valley, this historic site offers a mesmerising glimpse into the past. The adventure continues with a drive to the awe-inspiring Pont du Gard, the best-preserved remnants of a Roman aqueduct that once supplied water to the city of Nîmes. This architectural masterpiece is truly a sight to behold.
Next, you'll traverse through Provence towards the majestic city of Avignon. As you approach, you'll navigate along the docks between the Rhône River and the medieval walls, entering a city steeped in history. Take in the sights of Saint-Benezet Bridge and the Popes' Palace, Europe's largest Gothic-style palace.
The tour doesn't end here; another must-see awaits - the vineyards of Provence. Your guide will lead you through the Rhône River valley to Châteauneuf-du-Pape, a renowned winemaking village whose castle dominates the surrounding vineyards. Here, you'll partake in an inclusive wine-tasting experience. After a day filled with exploration and discovery, it's time to return to Marseille.
