Arles is a picturesque city on the banks of the Rhône and a convenient base for traveling around Provence. Its narrow streets, ancient ruins and atmospheric squares create an ideal starting point for day trips and quiet walks, and Van Gogh’s legacy gives the city a special artistic aura.
The historical heritage of Arles is striking in its diversity: the Roman amphitheatre and ancient theaters, the Aliskamps necropolis, the Cathedral of Saint-Trophim and the picturesque medieval quarters. Many monuments are included in the UNESCO World Heritage List, so walking around the city turns into a rich acquaintance with the culture and ancient history of the region.
The surroundings offer a contrast to the city streets: wild Camargue with pink flamingos and white horses, salt lagoons, vineyards and fragrant fields of lavender. Outdoor enthusiasts will find hiking trails, cycling routes along the Rhone, horseback riding and bird watching – all forms of Provence nature are close and diverse.
Formats of excursions are adjusted to the wishes of travelers: individual programs or group trips, leisurely walking in the center or car routes in the province, combined day trips. The value of local escort is hard to overestimate: guides not only know the history and hidden places, but also share live stories and practical tips; many guests choose excursions with a Russian-speaking guide for the sake of comfort and depth of experience.
Each excursion here is a chance to see Provence through the eyes of an artist and a historian at the same time, to feel the smells of the market and flowering terroirs, to hear the legends of the old streets. Book a tour and determine the format to your liking: from a quiet walk in Arles to a rich trip around the neighborhood - excursions in Russian are available. Discover Arles and bring home vivid memories of Provence.
