Overview
Amazing half-day afternoon tour! We’ll be visiting the incredible light show, Carrieres des Lumieres, where the paintings and artworks of famous artists (Monet in 2025) are projected inside an old, empty quarry. It will be an immersive cultural expérience for art lovers. And that’s not all – you’ll also have the chance to explore one of the most beautiful and visited eagle nest villages of France, Les Baux de Provence, at your own pace. As a special treat on the way back, we’ll make a stop in Saint Paul de Mausole, near Saint Remy de Provence, where you’ll find the asylum that welcomed Vincent Van Gogh in 1889.
