Overview

Throughout this visit, participants will discover the origins of classical French art which blended with a very particular Avignon Gothic style which lasted for many years. Here, between Provence and Occitanie, where the arts and life encourage us every day to discover the historical, architectural, gastronomic and cultural heritage, the concept of "Slow tourism" takes on its full meaning. An Avignon guide will share with you all his knowledge and anecdotes about the sites you will visit. Don't wait any longer to book this tour with us to experience unforgettable moments.
