Activity itinerary

Cathedrale Notre-Dame des Doms (Pass by)

Another wonder of the city: here is Notre-Dame-des-Doms Cathedral.

Rocher des Doms (Pass by)

Occupied since prehistory, the Rock of Doms, in addition to offering a magnificent view of the surroundings, was a privileged place to live sheltered from the whims of the Rhone which is just below, 30 metres below.

Avignon (Pass by)

Here you are in front of the iconic view of the city. The rooftops of the City of Popes and the surrounding villages are available to you, located a stone’s throw from the Rhone.

Boulevard du Rhône (Pass by)

Located at the tip of the Jardin des Doms, you have a breathtaking view of the Rhone and the island of Barthelasse, the largest river island in France.

Pont Saint-Benezet (Pont d'Avignon) (Pass by)

Here we are in front of the famous Pont d’Avignon, the Pont Saint-Bénézet of its real name. So, ready to dance in circles?

Le Grenier a sel (Pass by)

After crossing the ramparts through the Line gate, you come across one of the oldest buildings in the city, the one on your left.

Chapelle des Pénitents noirs (Pass by)

This pretty baroque façade belongs to the Chapel of the Black Penitents, which hosted one of the major brotherhoods of the city of Popes

Cinema Utopia (Pass by)

Here you are in front of the Utopia Cinemas, a true cultural institution of the city.

Rue de la Peyrolerie (Pass by)

Here we are in Peyrolerie Street. Straight from Provence, the name of this street comes from the word “peyrou”, which means cauldron in Provence.

Basilique Saint Pierre (Pass by)

Located a few steps from the Palace of the Popes, St. Peter's Basilica was first built in the 7th century, but it was demolished by the Saracens.

Tour Saint-Jean (Pass by)

Here you are, in one of the busiest places in the city.

Avignon Les Halles (Pass by)

Pius Square, which hosts the city’s Covered Point of Sale, was built in the 16th century in place of an old house.

Street of Dyers (Rue de Teinturiers) (Pass by)

Here we will turn right, but know that the street in front of you is a very touristic place that you can go to discover if you wish.

21 Rue des Lices (Pass by)

On your right stands a huge building that is hard not to notice.

Place des Corps Saints (Pass by)

Place des Corps Saints is one of the most pleasant in the city.

Remparts d'Avignon (Pass by)

You arrive here in front of the gate of Saint Michael. Avignon is one of the few French cities that have retained all their ramparts.

Cours Jean Jaurès (Pass by)

Here we are in the Cour Jean Jaurès, one of the main axes of Avignon, located at the gates of the ramparts.

Temple Saint Martial (Pass by)

Here we are in the Agricol Perdiguier square. Stop for a moment and look to your left.

Rue Joseph Vernet (Pass by)

Here you are in Joseph Vernet Street, a historic street in the city.

Remparts d'Avignon (Pass by)

We are still on Rue Joseph Vernet, but here you have to turn to the left to see a much older aspect than mansions.

Musee Calvet (Pass by)

We are in front of the main museum of Avignon, the Calvet Museum. It is this remarkable 18th century Inn that has housed the museum’s rich Collections since 1833.

Palais du Roure (Pass by)

The Palais du Roure, which means “oak palace”, is a cultural centre devoted to the popular arts and traditions of Provence.

Eglise Saint-Agricol (Pass by)

Do not hesitate to enter this beautiful 14th century church, the only church of this century that has aisles.

Place de l'Horloge (Pass by)

Here you are in the heart of the city, a place of animation and unmissable passage for the visit of Avignon.

Opera Theatre d'Avignon (Pass by)

Were you thinking of visiting Avignon without going through its theatre? Impossible, considering that the Festival d’Avignon is one of the most important international events in the field of live performance!

Hotel des Monnaies (Pass by)

You have arrived in the Palace Square, the most impressive in the city. Before focusing on the beautiful monument that composes it, take a look at the building on your left.

Palais des Papes (Pass by)

Now let's talk about the real mastodon facing you: the Palace of the Popes.
