Discover the rich history of one of Occitania's most ancient cities through this exclusive tour of Nîmes. You will be guided by a dedicated English-speaking expert, ensuring a personalized experience.
Tour Overview
Our journey will commence at the designated meeting point, situated in the square by the Maison Carrée temple.
The Roman era marked a significant chapter in Nîmes' history. We'll share the fascinating story of how this city was established by Emperor Augustus in 27 B.C. in Gaul, eventually becoming the capital of the province of Narbonne. This area was crucial for facilitating safe passage along the road to Hispania.
The most notable structure from this Imperial period is the Roman amphitheater of Nîmes. From the exterior, you will witness this "small Coliseum of Rome," once a venue for gladiatorial battles and public events that captivated both aristocrats and the general populace.
Our exploration will lead us next to the serene La Fontaine Gardens. In this picturesque setting, dating back to the 17th century, we will encounter the remnants of the Temple of Diana and the Tour Magne, an ancient Roman watchtower that stands at an impressive height of 18 m (59 ft).
After an engaging 2-hour tour through the highlights of Nîmes, we will wrap up our experience in the vibrant city center.
