Description
If you are eager to discover the charm of France's Little Rome, a tailored private tour of Arles offers an excellent opportunity. Accompanied by an expert guide, your group will delve into the city’s key attractions while uncovering its rich historical narrative.
Itinerary
We will convene at the designated time in front of the tourist office in Arles, setting off on a walking tour that showcases the historical core of this delightful southern French town.
As we embark on this private exploration of Arles, we’ll stroll through the charming old town, pausing at iconic sites to delve into intriguing historical insights and anecdotes. Given that this is a personalised tour, you are welcome to share your specific interests with the guide, ensuring an engaging experience tailored to your preferences.
The journey begins with a visit to the Arles Amphitheatre, recognized as one of the finest Roman amphitheatres globally. Here, we’ll discuss the thrilling gladiatorial contests that took place within this remarkable 1st century structure.
Following that, we’ll proceed to examine the framework of the ancient theatre, which offers a glimpse into the artistic and cultural achievements of the Roman Empire. Next, we’ll marvel at the impressive Obélisque d'Arles, a striking red granite monument prominently located on the Place de la République. This square also features the Town Hall.
We will then stop by the Church of St Trophime, a site recognized as a World Heritage Site. Here, we will admire the intricate Romanesque details adorning the façade of this 12th century structure.
Additionally, we will take the opportunity to discuss the renowned Vincent Van Gogh, who spent over a year in Arles and created around 200 masterpieces during his time there. We’ll visit some of the iconic places he immortalized in his works, including the famous Café de la Nuit.
After two hours of enriching exploration, we will conclude our private tour of Arles by returning to the initial meeting point.
