Perfect Day
Arnaud was great! Turned out my husband and I were the only ones on the tour so we had a private tour! Arnaud is knowledgeable and friendly, while being professional. The show at the Carrières des Lumières in Les Baux de Provence was amazing! So glad we got to experience that. Then our guided walk thru Arles was just right, informative and saw the highlights without dragging it on. Finishing up in St.Remy with free time we went for a coffee and dessert after a walk around the town.

A day in Arles, Les Baux and Saint-Rémy: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Avignon.
How much does A day in Arles, Les Baux and Saint-Rémy cost?
+
Prices start at $136 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Avignon usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does A day in Arles, Les Baux and Saint-Rémy take?
+
Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Avignon is not rushed.
Is A day in Arles, Les Baux and Saint-Rémy worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 9 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Avignon, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule A day in Arles, Les Baux and Saint-Rémy?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is A day in Arles, Les Baux and Saint-Rémy suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book A day in Arles, Les Baux and Saint-Rémy?
+
Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Avignon can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Avignon and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does A day in Arles, Les Baux and Saint-Rémy start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Avignon within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Avignon?
+
On Outty we rank every Avignon experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Highlights of Provence in One Day, Chateauneuf du Pape wine tour, Lavender Route - Small-Group Day Trip from Avignon. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Avignon?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Avignon?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in A day in Arles, Les Baux and Saint-Rémy?

Not included: Tips; Picnic between November and March; and Visit of the oil mill + tasting (November to March). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for A day in Arles, Les Baux and Saint-Rémy?
+
Wait for me in front of the Le Bristol hotel. My car is black with Ventourisme on the sides. If you are not staying in Avignon intramural, please contact me to arrange a better meeting point. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
