Inland Provence is a cycling paradise of tiny villages linked by quiet backroads, all calling your name! On this cycling tour you will explore the historical remains - from prehistoric times to Roman times. You will discover wonderful architectural monuments such as the Roman theatre and the triumphal arch in Orange, but also the arenas in Arles and Nîmes. You will discover Saint-Rémy, perhaps the most beautiful and certainly the most typical of the towns in Provence, where you can take a break in the shady square or stroll through the historic centre. Your itinerary will take you along country lanes, ancient Roman roads and you will be able to admire the sublime view of the high village of Les Baux-de-Provence and spend a day in the Camargue. Splendid churches, medieval castles and fascinating Roman sites will lead you to make many stops. And there's plenty of time to sample the wines of the Côtes du Rhône and the products of Provence.
