    Arles & Les Baux: Private Shore Excursion from Marseille
    Set out from Marseille on a private shore excursion that weaves together the Roman grandeur of Arles, the dramatic hilltop setting of Les Baux‑de‑Provence, and the timeless charm of Saint‑Rémy‑de‑Provence. With your own English‑speaking driver and premium A/C vehicle, you travel in comfort while keeping the day flexible and unhurried.

    Roman Heritage in Arles
    Begin in Arles, where wide boulevards, stone lanes and sunlit squares frame some of the best‑preserved Roman monuments in Provence. Enjoy a guided walk past the amphitheater, ancient theatre and historic quarters, with time to pause for photos and to soak up the everyday life of this vibrant town.

    Les Baux: Perched Medieval Village
    Continue into the Alpilles hills to Les Baux‑de‑Provence, a spectacular medieval village perched on a rocky outcrop. Stroll its cobbled streets, explore stone houses and ruined ramparts, and savour panoramic views over olive groves and rugged cliffs that seem made for photographers and painters alike.

    Optional Immersive Art Experience
    If you wish, you can add a visit to the Carrières de Lumières in Les Baux (time permitting, pre-booking mandatory), where masterpieces are projected onto quarry walls in a dazzling sound‑and‑light show—a memorable way to connect art, music and place.

    Designed for Discerning Travelers
    With private pick‑up and drop‑off at your cruise ship, a comfortable vehicle, and the option to pre‑arrange monument entrances, this excursion is crafted for discerning travelers who want depth, ease and style in one unforgettable day ashore.
