What you can expect

  • What if we went back 2,000 years?

    For 1 hour and 30 minutes, we will explore Nîmes' must-see sites: the Tour Magne, the Jardins de la Fontaine, the Temple of Diana, the Maison Carrée, and the Arena.

    But here, no endless lists of dates and proper names! We will go back in time through local anecdotes, unusual details and the secrets that the old stones still have to tell us.

    A lively, accessible tour, full of humour and deeply human, to understand Nîmes without needing to be a historian, with a guide who is passionate about sharing heritage.
