Our Provence Biking Adventure |
Welcome to our Provence Photo Gallery!
We
recently travelled to Provence with Van Gogh Tours on a biking adventure of
a lifetime that we shared with several other enthusiastic cyclists! We took
the "Van Gogh in Provence Tour" that included
visits to the towns and cities where Van
Gogh painted many of his works of art. We began in Avignon, home
to the French Papacy in the 1300s, and then travelled onward to the quaint town
of St. Remy and finally picturesque Arles. Along the way, we
visited one of the last
remaining intact Roman aquaducts, the Pont du Gard, a medieval abbey, the
beautiful village of Les Baux with its sweeping views of the region & the mysterious and intriguing wildlife
sanctuary, the Camargue. Enclosed on the following pages are photos we took along the way
as we cycled through the lush countryside along
quiet country lanes past vineyards, poppy fields, groves of olive trees and expansive
rural country farms. Each days ride concluded with comfortable accomodations
in lovely small inns and hotels,
a fantastic sampling of local Provencal cuisine, wonderful local wines and great conversation and
camraderie with our
new cycling friends!
Please sit back and enjoy the ride!
