Dopo circa 1 ora di auto, scopri la città storica di Arles, una città fortificata dichiarata Patrimonio dell'Umanità dall'UNESCO. Partecipa a un tour a piedi del centro storico per visitare i monumenti più emblematici della città tra cui l'Anfiteatro, il Teatro Antico o la chiesa di Saint Trophime.
La giornata proseguirà con la visita a Saint Remy de Provence, uno dei borghi più belli della zona. Il villaggio è noto per essere un luogo estivo caldo e chic, ma è ancora possibile trovare alcune zone tranquille all'interno del villaggio, poiché ci sono molte piccole piazze sparse ovunque. Dopo la visita, tempo libero per la scoperta personale e pranzo (a proprie spese). Per tua informazione, il mercoledì c'è un bellissimo mercato provenzale.
Per la tua ultima visita della giornata, guida verso la regione montuosa delle Alpilles, famosa per i suoi vigneti e ulivi. Raggiungi il villaggio medievale di Les Baux-de-Provence, costruito su uno sperone roccioso, e da lì godrai di una vista mozzafiato sulla circostante campagna provenzale. Goditi un po' di tempo libero per passeggiare ed esplorare le stradine, le gallerie d'arte e i resti di una fortezza del X secolo. Dopo questa visita, sarà il momento di tornare ad Aix en Provence.

Three of the most beautiful cities I’ve visited. Our guide was a Spanish women who had a great knowledge of each town and shared her enthusiasm for each place. She shared great stories and was very friendly. If you have the chance to visit the Van Gogh asylum I’d highly recommend it You’ll have a great time no matter what you do in each town
Wonderful cities and tour guide! Our guide was punctual, professional, fun, and knowledgeable. Well done!
This was a chock full of history tour of Arles, St Remy and Les Beaux. Perhaps a little too much history but a great day seeing three wonderful and different towns. Would have loved to have stopped at the Sanatorium where Van Gogh spent time instead of just driving through.
A day of discovery and learning , visiting three very interesting towns with Alex , a very knowledgable and dedicated guide ,
Les Baux is truly a step back in time. Saint-Remy is charming, and Arles is a history lesson that is very wonderful. Alex, once again, was a fabulous guide with an incredible knowledge of every place we visited.
Our tour guide Ines was wonderful! She helped us make good use of our time and provided interesting information about the area. If you have the option, I recommend visiting The Monastery of St. Paul de Mausole, where Vincent Van Gogh was cared for and painted many of his famous works.
It requires a lot of walking uphill at Les Baux to see beautiful vistas but worth the effort if you can. Camille was an excellent guide, personable yet professional. She knows so many of history’s back stories. Excellent use of time!!!!
It was really great! Camille was perfect and gave us all explanation needed at each place we've been. She drives very well and is carefull! Places visited are really amazing! Thanks
Really nice drive into the country side , especially the visit to the very old hill top town of lesbaux ! Great views of the rocky area below ! Plenty of time to enjoy lunch and see enough of the very touristy town . The displays in Arles calling out locations were Vangogh was inspired were disappointing for the lack of information provided in English and the care or lack there of the painting replicates ! Driver was friendly and answered questions but lack of experience in calling out the details on the Arles walking tour was evident !
Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the beautiful drive through the countryside and the visit to Les Baux. Our tour is designed to give guests an overview of three different villages in one day, which means we cannot linger too long in each place. The guide on this itinerary is a specialist of the villages, and her goal is to highlight their history and main features while still leaving some free time to explore. We appreciate your comments and will take them into account as we continue to improve the experience. Kind regards, Jeanne from the Ophorus Team
We booked a private tour because my mother is elderly and we wanted to skip Les Baux because of the steep hills, for more time in Arles. We are so glad we did. Arles turned out to be our favorite town in Provence. Our guide, Jehanne, was so kind and patient. She stayed with my mother when she needed to rest. Her English is extraordinary and her knowledge of history is extensive. We learned so much more on a private tour. She showed us hidden gems and helped us find a great restaurant, away from the tourists. We also spent a long time at Saint-Paul de Mausole, a beautiful and interesting psychiatric home in a monastery where Van Gogh spent a year in isolation, painting some of his most famous works. Unfortunately group tours skip this sight, as it probably gets quite crowded. We spent a total of three weeks in Provence this year and we all agreed this tour was the highlight.
