Your walking tour will end up with a glass of Cotes du Rhone wine served in a historical place.

You will visit this UNESCO-classified bridge, also the most amazing and best-preserved piece of Roman aqueduct in Western Europe. Climb up the village of Les Baux de Provence, located upon a rock at 245 meters of altitude. Stroll through its historical centre where you will see the Museum of Santons, the Hotel des Porcelets, Saint Vincent Church and beautiful houses from the 16th century.
