Your private Provence tour guide will take you to some of the most intriguing ancient ruins of Provence, nestled in the majestic Alpilles mountains. Your first stop on this tour is the village of Les Baux de Provence, located on a rocky plateau at the heart of the Alpilles. 5,000-year-old Les Baux boasts a majestic castle, labyrinth streets and breathtaking views.  Its castle, dating from 950 A.D., was carved from the living rock it stands on. 

Next, your Provence tour will also take you on a tour of St. Remy de Provence, located on the slopes of the Alpilles mountains. You will fall in love with St. Remy’s charming streets and ancient fountains.  You will walk through the town center or you will get a glimpse the house where Nostradamus was born in 1503.  Your Provence private tour also takes you to the ancient Roman site of Glanum, where you can walk amongst the ruins of the Forum, monuments and baths in a Gaulish-Roman necropolis that dates from 30 B.C. You can sample some dishes from ancient Rome in an open-air terraced restaurant overlooking the Forum ruins, and sample wine from the "Vallée des Baux."

Your final stop on your guided tour of Provence will be Pont du Gard, a huge, perfectly preserved Roman aqueduct that supplied running water to the city of Nimes and beyond. This marvel of engineering work has endured two millennia, attracting scientists, artists and visitors from all over the world. Your tour guide will show you the 1,000-year-old olive tree a few yards away from this incredible site.  This is one of the highlights of this Provence tour, a fabulous day trip. This magnificent monument is situated at the rim of Gardon Canyon. From its heights, one can admire the landscape of the valley and follow the flow of the Gard River, tributary of the Rhône. You will explore a number of other sights here before concluding this interesting tour of ancient Provence.
