Uzes
With its colourful markets and cafes, historic buildings and alleyways this town is a ‘must see’. It can be combined with a visit to the nearby Pont du Gard.
Avignon
The spectacular Palace of the Popes and of course the folklore obligation to dance at the broken bridge. Avignon is a city full of history, beauty and music.
Pont du Gard
A spectacular wonder built by the Romans. The facilities encourage bathing in the river that flows beneath it. Take costumes and towels.
