From Avignon: Roman Tour to Pont du Gard, Nîmes & Orange

About this tour

Pickup in front of Hotel Le Bristol in Avignon (address: 44 Cours Jean Jaurès 84000 Avignon) or around (contact me if you don’t stay within Avignon itself). Then we will go to Orange for a stop at the Roman Arch of Triumph for some pictures and explanations about the history of the monument. After this, you will visit the Roman Theatre of Orange with audio guides in the language you want. You will enjoy the picnic with local products from farms only and the Pont du Gard in the background (between April and October only), before walking around and on the magnificent Pont du Gard, a former bridge aqueduct. To finish, we will go to Nimes for a quick stop in front of the Maison Carrée, a former temple dedicated to the grandsons of the Emperor Augustus, before visiting the Amphitheater with an audio guide in the language you want (from November to March, it will only be a walk around the amphitheater, for some pictures). Drop off in the late afternoon at the same place where I picked you up in the morning.
