A perfect day trip in Provence

Our day trip with Provans lived up to all expectations. Nico, our tour guide and driver, was knowledgeable, polite and efficient, and always prepared to go the extra mile. My wife and I were picked up and dropped off at our hotel, and the four places visited were perfectly spaced out, with adequate time in each. The four places in question were very varied, and all of great interest - our favourites were probably Les Baux and le Pont du Gard. A camera is a must!

St Rémy de Provence

Landscapes that inspired Van Gogh's genius

Experience the peaceful surroundings of St Paul de Mausole's asylum, where the Dutch artist Vincent Van Gogh created masterpieces like "The Starry Night" and "The Irises". Don't miss the remains of the former Roman town of Glanum that are to be admired just nearby. Please be aware that the hospital is still in use today so you will only be able to see the exteriors and the last part of St Remy's Van Gogh Walk with boards representing some of the painter's most famous works. The visit of the replica of the painter's room is not included in this tour.

Les Baux de Provence

An eagle's nest in the heart of the Alpilles massif

Enjoy stunning views from this majestic stone town, perched on a rocky plateau overlooking olive groves and vineyards. A lot of shopping opportunities!

Arles

A digest of history in a vibrant town

Follow in Van Gogh's footsteps and stroll along the lively streets of Arles, home to ancient traditions, amazing Roman monuments and masterpieces of medieval art. Don't miss its picturesque market on Wednesdays and Saturdays! This stop being longer, you'll have enough time for visits and lunch (not included).

Pont du Gard

Much more than a bridge

Visit a unique World Heritage Site and be awestruck by this 2000-year-old masterpiece of Roman engineering. On hot days you can also deep your feet or take a dive into the river Gardon, to see the aqueduc from an unusual angle!


Entrance ticket included

Inspirational Van Gogh landscapes

Nicolas of ProVans guided us through an outstanding combination tour of Roman history and recent art history. After walking the grounds of the hospital where Van Gough struggled with depression and producing some of his best paintings, we encountered surprising evidence of Roman history nearby. During this tour (the Yellow Tour) we saw the Roman colosseum and amphitheatre of Arles and the huge Roman engineering project of Pont du Gard, the highest Roman aqueduct at 48 meters. Nicolas was very personable, proving relevant, timely information as well as finding out our interests. A highly professional and very enjoyable tour which left us tired but jubilant.
