What to expect

From the top of the fortified medieval city walls, discover Avignon stretching in all its beauty along the Rhône River. Retrace the history of the city where the papacy was established in the early 14th century. Enjoy the skip-the-line access and follow the guide inside the Pope's Palace, the largest Gothic-styled Palace in Europe.

While walking on the cobbled streets to the Place de l'Horloge, find out about the secret of the painted windows. Admire the Town Hall topped with its clock tower and the theater, and enjoy a glass of Côtes du Rhône wine served in a historical place, mostly known by the locals.

Next, visit the village of Roussillon and its famous ochre cliffs, and the famous Roman bridge, Pont Julien. You will then drive through the village of Lacoste, where you can find the Marquis de Sade's castle.

The last visit of the day is to Gordes. Perched high up in the Luberon and known as one of the most beautiful villages in France, you will enjoy some free time to discover it and its famous buildings, all made from dry stones.
