This tour gives you the chance to explore the typical villages that give the region of Provence its unique charm !  The first stop on the itinerary is the village of Baux de Provence.

On your way you will pass the imposing Pont du Gard, the last vestige of the Nîmes aqueduct, which is a listed unesco world Heritage Site. The tour ends with a visit to the prestigious Chateauneuf-du-Pape domain for a wine tasting session during which you can savour the region's world-famous wines. You will then be driven back to Aix en Provence.
