Hello dear visitor, my name is Arnaud and will be your native Guide of this magnificent Provence. Among the 5 tours I offer, I take you today to Arles and its surroundings.
We will first go to a breathtaking viewpoint on Les Baux de Provence, a medieval village built on a rocky promontory. You will then see the fabulous image show of the Quarries of Lights, former place of limestone extraction. You will come out with stars full of eyes!
Afterwards, we will stop at Moulin Castelas to visit the mill and taste several olive oils, before picnicking under the fig trees, excellent fresh produce from local farms.
We will then stroll through the city of Arles, where you will discover its Roman, medieval and contemporary history.
Finally, you will have free time in St Rémy de Provence, to stroll through its alleys, on the terrace of coffee or in its souvenir shops.

5.00Arnaud was great! Turned out my husband and I were the only ones on the tour so we had a private tour! Arnaud is knowledgeable and friendly, while being professional. The show at the Carrières des Lumières in Les Baux de Provence was amazing! So glad we got to experience that. Then our guided walk thru Arles was just right, informative and saw the highlights without dragging it on. Finishing up in St.Remy with free time we went for a coffee and dessert after a walk around the town.
Perfect day out

5.00A perfect day. Arnaud ensured we had a wonderful well paced day and provided lots of information about each sight. The variety of experiences from Roman buildings, medieval towns, the oil mill, awesome carrieres des lumieres & a fabulous picnic made this tour a standout. Highly recommend Ventourisme.
Holidays in Provence!

5.00Great tour in Arles, with subsequent visit to an olive oil factory. Then we went to the beautiful Le Baux and went to the impressive carriere inside a cave. Finalizando na simpática vila de Saint Marie. Excellent driving and explanations from our guide.
The best day!

5.00We loved this tour! It was an amazing agenda. Our B&B host could not believe that we saw everything in one day. We saw the Roman Amphitheater and Theater in Arles, the village of Les Baux, and the Roman ruins and toured the asylum Van Gogh stayed at in St. Remy. We also had a picnic Arnaud prepared and olive oil tasting, as well as delicious candied fruit tasting. It was such a fun day, and Arnaud was a great tour guide.
Very nice discoveries
