Description:

The countryside of Provence features charming landscapes, picturesque villages, and outstanding historical sites for you to explore. Admire the imposing Roman-era Pont du Gard, the antiques at Saint Rémy de Provence, and the breathtaking hilltop villages of Les Baux de Provence and Gordes.

Your tour starts with a trip to the Pont du Gard, a UNESCO World Heritage Site constructed nearly 2,000 years ago. Admire this amazingly well-preserved Roman aqueduct, built to supply water to the surrounding villages.

Next, see the charming commune of Saint-Rémy de Provence in the heart of the Alpilles mountain range. The birthplace of Nostradamus and subject of more than 100 paintings by Van Gogh, the village is an enchanting paradise. Relax amid the ambience of this idyllic Provençal village and wander cobblestone streets lined with elegant historical buildings.

Reach Les Baux-de-Provence, a historic town perched on a rocky plateau, to feel a world apart from modernity. Stroll through ancient alleyways, peaceful squares, and shaded terraces full of fragrant, colorful flowers.

Your day continues with a stop in the enchanting village of Roussillon. Explore its maze of narrow lanes bordered with ochre buildings, and then move on to the perched town of Gordes, famous for its dramatic hilltop setting and lovely architecture.
