Avignon in 24h

Start your discovery with the city’s most emblematic landmark: the Palais des Papes. The residence of the 14th-century pontiffs and a Unesco World Heritage site, it is the most important Gothic palace in the world!

Once the tour is over, there’s still a long list of places to discover, so here are a few suggestions:
The Pont d’Avignon or Pont Saint-Bénezet, the basilique métropolitaine Notre-Dame des Doms and the jardin du Rocher des Doms (⚠️ works in progress, reopening in 2027), the Halles, l’île de la Barthelasse…

Encircled by ramparts, the historic center has built its operation around the small squares of the intramuros: each has built its history, its reputation, its uniqueness. Under the Provencal sun, Avignon’s squares are today an essential symbol of its art of living. In the shade of a plane tree, lulled by the sound of cicadas, savor the passing of time…

To occupy your evening in an unusual way, why not take a guided tour?
Vincent des Noctambules d’Avignon offers 3 themed guided tours as soon as night falls. These tours will enable you to see the city from a different angle, in the light of the illuminated buildings, in a quieter, more intimate atmosphere.
