Designed specifically for Avignon river cruise guests, this compact shore excursion offers a taste of authentic Provence through charming village life and one of the region’s most emblematic products: olive oil. With short driving distances and a carefully timed itinerary, the experience is ideal for travelers seeking a non-wine culinary discovery without committing a full day.
Travel in a premium air-conditioned minivan with your professional English-speaking driver-guide to Saint‑Rémy‑de‑Provence, a lively Provençal town set at the foot of the Alpilles. Enjoy a short guided walk and free time in the historic center, known for its elegant streets, local shops, and traditional atmosphere.
The excursion continues with a visit to a renowned olive oil mill in the Alpilles, such as Moulin Castelas, where a guided olive oil tasting is included. Learn about olive varieties, harvesting, and pressing methods, and sample several locally produced oils certified under regional quality labels. The tasting is structured, accessible, and perfectly suited to cruise schedules.
Walking throughout the tour is easy and optional, and no lunch is included to ensure a smooth and punctual return. This compact shore excursion blends culture, cuisine, and countryside, all carefully timed to guarantee a relaxed experience and on-time return to your river cruise ship in Avignon.
