The legacy of the Roman Empire in this region is still very much present in Nîmes and Pont du Gard. Follow all the traces of antiquity with this Provence Roman history tour.
We'll pick you up at the indicated time at 41 Cours Jean Jaurès in Avignon. After an hour, we'll arrive in Nîmes, one of the most outstanding cities of Roman origin in Provence.
The most important Roman monument in the city is the Arenas de Nîmes amphitheatre. We'll provide you with an audio guide in English so that you can explore on your own. Just like the Coliseum in Rome, gladiator competitions were held in its central circle, and today it's one of the most popular bullrings in France! When you finish your visit, we'll stop briefly in front of another famous monument in Nîmes, the Maison Carrée temple.
The next stop on the tour is Pont du Gard, one of the best-preserved Roman aqueducts in Provence. We'll leave you free time to admire the monument at your leisure. If you wish, you can take advantage of this time to visit the Pont du Gard Museum. Here, you'll discover some interesting facts about the engineering works that the Romans built thousands of years ago.
Before heading back, we'll make a stop in Orange. This old Roman city has two incredible ancient monuments dating back to the 1st century BC, which are also UNESCO World Heritage Sites. You'll love its Roman Theatre!
From Orange, we'll return to Avignon and arrive at the starting point 8.5 hours after initial pickup.
The Roman Antique Theatre of Orange and the Arenas de Nîmes amphitheatre are occasionally closed during special events.
