What you can expect

Ready for a leap back in time? Head to the Tour Magne, the ancient watchtower that has dominated the city for more than 2,000 years.

Shall we head back down? To the Jardins de la Fontaine, a true haven of peace where, in the past, the inhabitants came to pray to the god Nemausus. Today, there are no more animal sacrifices, but the atmosphere remains sacred. Take the opportunity to make a wish… you never know!

Your next stop is the mysterious Temple of Diana. Temple? Library? Book club? Historians disagree, but one thing is certain: this ruined place has stories to tell.

Head for the Maison Carrée! Formerly dedicated to the sons of Augustus, it is now dedicated to… your perfect selfie in front of one of the best-preserved Roman temples in the world.

A grand finale: the Amphitheatre of Nîmes! Here, there are no gladiators or hungry lions (phew!), but an amphitheatre that has seen centuries of battles, markets, and even families sitting in the stands. Every stone breathes history…

⏳ 1 hour and 30 minutes, and you're an expert on Nemausus! A short but intense tour to dive back into Roman times, with a passionate live guide and some juicy anecdotes.
