We start with a walk through the quiet little town of Saint-Rémy-de-Provence. Stopping at the very peaceful Saint-Paul-de-Mausole, the hospital where Van Gogh stayed for one year and where he painted his most famous canvases: irises, olive tree fields, wheat fields with the range of les Alpilles in the background. Stop in les Baux-de-Provence a rock top fortress surrounded by olive trees and vineyards, which belonged, in the Middle Ages, to a rebellious family...
We end the day in the Roman and Romanesque city of Arles admiring the great Roman amphitheatre, the ruins of the Roman theatre, the Romanesque church of Saint-Trophime with its remarkable carved gate... and other places painted by Van Gogh. Olive oil tasting and/or wine tasting on request. |
