Learn moreProvence - the sunny country of France with fertile, lush plains, Mediterranean coast, cultural centers of antiquity and the Middle Ages, fragrant herbs and Provençal way of life. A magnificent cultural landscape that has attracted countless painters such as van Gogh, Gauguin, Picasso, Matisse and Chagall with its unique light and intense colours. In addition to the magnificent and varied landscape, Provence also impresses with its history, art and architecture. Famous buildings such as the Palais des Papes in Avignon (World Heritage), the Roman arenas in Arles and Nîmes and the Pont du Gard (World Heritage) are just as enchanting as the Greco-Roman excavations of Glanum and the medieval town of Les Baux in the Alpilles. The round trip through the Camargue, the protected marshland in the Rhône delta, is another highlight. The famous pink flamingos and the white horses are the landmarks of this landscape, which represents a grandiose contrast to what has been seen so far. And again and again we breathe the life of Provence: hustle and bustle in the cities, colorful markets, Spanish traditions, village life under plane trees and a touch of southern serenity.
Individual arrival in Orange, the city with well-known monuments from Roman times. The grandiose theater and the triumphal arch are historical witnesses from this era. The old town captivates with its Provençal charm with small, pretty shops and cafés.
Overnight stay: Orange
The first stage leads to the world-famous wine town of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. A stroll through the town should be planned. You can reach the city of Avignon on bike paths and with almost no traffic. We recommend a stroll through the old town with a visit to the Papal Palace, which has been declared a national heritage site.
Overnight stay: Avignon
Your journey today takes you first to St. Rémy, perhaps the most beautiful, but certainly one of the most typical towns in Provence. Under the shade of the plane trees in the old town's narrow streets, the vibrant atmosphere, the dazzling colors, and the abundance of herbal scents are hard to surpass. A climb into the Alpilles mountains is rewarded with a stunning view of Les Baux, compensating for the slight exertion. Les Baux is also known as the "city in the rock" due to its harmonious layout and the ruins of its fortress. A network of charming little paths and lanes leads to Arles. Roman culture and Romanesque heritage shape the cityscape and history of Arles. Arles was the second most important city in the Roman Empire and is also the city of Vincent van Gogh.
Overnight stay in Arles
Half sea, half land, the Camargue is a unique natural area with brackish water lakes, vast salt steppes, wild horses and the famous pink flamingos. Small streets lead comfortably into the unique natural area. In Méjanes you have the opportunity to admire the untouched nature and, with a little luck, flamingos and wild bulls with a small train. The path leads back to Arles on almost car-free streets.
Accommodation: Overnight stay as on the previous day in Arles
In the morning, the tour takes you to the two towns of Tarascon and Beaucaire, separated by the Rhône River. The main attractions of these towns are their 12th-century castles. In Beaucaire, numerous cafes along the canal invite you to take a break. In Nîmes, numerous remarkably well-preserved buildings bear witness to Roman times. Admire the Arena, the Maison Carrée, or the Tour Magne. Modern architecture also makes its mark, for example, with the Carré d'Art (cultural center) designed by Norman Foster.
Overnight stay: Nîmes
From Nîmes, the tour leads to the famous Pont du Gard, the best-preserved Roman aqueduct in the world and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This impressive structure invites you to explore and take a break by the Gardon River. The route then follows a former railway line, which has been transformed into an excellent cycle path. From from car traffic, you can cycle at a leisurely pace through vineyards, olive groves, and the fragrant garrigue to the charming town of Uzès. With its picturesque streets, elegant squares, and southern French flair, Uzès is one of the most beautiful places in the region.
Accommodation location: Uzès / surrounding area
Today the landscape changes again. Your last stage leads through the hilly landscape of the Garrigue, covered with Kermes oaks and Mediterranean herbs. Later, vineyards and the lovely orchards of Provence dominate again. You cross the Rhône. On the other side of the river you cycle through the southern French town of Caderousse and return to the city of Orange in the afternoon.
Overnight stay: Orange
After breakfast individual return journey or start of your extension in Orange. Train passengers can reach every train station in Germany with the TGV until the evening.
