Wonderful guide, beautiful trip!
The tour was wonderful and exceeded our expectations. . Charming towns with interesting information on Van Gogh. The luminare was so fascinating and Pont-du-Gard was amazing. There were only 4 of us on this tour; our guide Florine was so personable and knowledgeable. Highly recommend her and the tour.

Enjoyable afternoon
I really enjoyed my time on the tour. Our guide was generous with her time and information. I highly recommend taking a tour as a solo traveler. You are in a friendly and safe environment with help exploring the region. I wish I had scheduled more at the beginning of my trip to learn more about Avignon and its many beautiful neighboring areas and to meet like travelers.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much Stephanie for your nice commentary about your visit in the Alpilles and Pont du Gard with me, it was a pleasure. Kind regards, Florine

Saint-Rémy, Les Baux + olive oil tasting and the Pont du Gard: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Avignon.
How much does Saint-Rémy, Les Baux + olive oil tasting and the Pont du Gard cost?
+
Prices start at $102 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 Saint-Rémy, Les Baux + olive oil tasting and the Pont du Gard take?
+
Plan for about 6 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 Saint-Rémy, Les Baux + olive oil tasting and the Pont du Gard worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Avignon, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Saint-Rémy, Les Baux + olive oil tasting and the Pont du Gard?
+
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 Saint-Rémy, Les Baux + olive oil tasting and the Pont du Gard suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Saint-Rémy, Les Baux + olive oil tasting and the Pont du Gard?
+
Around 1 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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Saint-Rémy, Les Baux + olive oil tasting and the Pont du Gard 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.
