Aix-en-Provence (included).
The former capital of Provence,
Aix-en-Provence is known as ‘the city of a thousand fountains’
and is where Cézanne was born.
Pont du Gard and Avignon
(optional, included on Silver Service).
We travel to the Pont du
Gard, an impressive aqueduct dating back to 19BC, then to
the walled city of Avignon where you can visit the Palais
des Papes (Palace of the Popes), and Pont St. Bénézet, the
famous broken bridge referred to as ‘Pont d’Avignon’ (extra
cost).
Marseille and Cassis
(optional).
We spend the morning in
Marseille, with its Old Town, harbour, 35 miles of gorgeous
coastline, Marché à la Criée (old fish market area with theatre)
and the Château d’If (the prison in Dumas’ ‘The Count of Monte
Cristo’). We then travel to the lovely seaside resort of Cassis,
with its picturesque fishing port and town square. Spend free
time here before returning to the hotel.
Nîmes (included).
En route to the Dordogne
region, we make a short visit to Nîmes, founded by Emperor
Augustus in the 2nd century AD due to its proximity to a spring
in Uzès. Some call Nîmes the ‘Rome of France’, on account
Sarlat and Rocamadour
(included).
We visit the bustling town
of Sarlat in the Perigord-Noir. You will have free time to
explore this fascinating town, which is home to some of the
best-preserved medieval buildings in France. These include
Cathédrale St. Sacerdos, a Gothic and Romanesque-style church.
In the afternoon, we return to Rocamadour for time at leisure.
Perched on a limestone cliff overlooking the gorge of the
River Alzou, Rocamadour is an important pilgrimage site for
the French.
