The legacy of the Roman Empire in this region is still very much present in Nîmes, Pont du Gard, and Uzès. Follow all the traces of antiquity with this Provence Roman History Tour.

Description

We'll pick you up at the indicated time at 41 Cours Jean Jaurès in Avignon. After an hour, we'll arrive in Nîmes, one of the most outstanding cities of Roman origin in Provence.

The most important Roman monument is the Arenas de Nîmes amphitheatre. You'll receive an audio guide in English for an independent exploration. Gladiator competitions were held in this structure, which is now one of the most popular bullrings in France. Following your visit, we'll make a brief stop at the Maison Carrée temple.

The next stop is Pont du Gard, one of the best-preserved Roman aqueducts. You'll have free time to admire the monument and can opt to visit the Pont du Gard Museum for insights into Roman engineering.

The tour continues to Uzès, where you can explore the Provencal village, including Place aux Herbes and the Tour Fenestrelle.

Before returning, we'll stop in Orange to see two incredible ancient monuments from the 1st century BC, both UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including its Roman Theatre.

We will return to Avignon, arriving at the starting point 8 hours after the initial pickup.
