Product Info

-What you can expect-
Your day begins with a rendezvous with your knowledgeable local guide, eager to share the rich history of Provence's historical sites. Your first destination is Nîmes, a city renowned for its illustrious Roman past and artistic heritage. Here, you'll explore antique buildings such as the Arena, complete with an audio-guide tour, and the Maison Carrée, one of the best-preserved Roman temples.

The journey through time continues as you follow the path of the ancient Roman aqueduct that once supplied spring water to Nîmes. The highlight of this route is undoubtedly the Pont du Gard. Dating back to the first century and recognised by UNESCO, this remarkably preserved section of the aqueduct stands as a testament to Roman engineering prowess and is a must-see on any historical tour in Provence.

To conclude your day, you'll visit the antique theatre in Orange, where an included entrance allows you to fully appreciate this architectural gem. Finally, a photo stop at the Triumphal Arch provides a fitting end to your immersive exploration of Provence's Roman legacy.
