Travel south from Avignon to explore the city of Arles, the former home of Vincent van Gogh and the site of several UNESCO–listed Roman landmarks. Most day trip itineraries cover the Arles Amphitheatre, the Roman Theatre of Arles, and the Church of Saint Trophime, and feature a professional guide who’ll explain the city’s transition from an imperial hub to a medieval spiritual center. Tours handle all transit, insight into the city’s dense layers of history, and let you bypass the hassle of city parking, so you can wander through the historic district to spot various locations depicted in Van Gogh’s paintings. Many excursions also include a stop at the nearby Alyscamps necropolis.
