In 1309, Pope Clement V chose Avignon over Rome…and for the next seven decades southern France became the headquarters of European Christianity. These days, visitors can ponder Avignon's religious history alongside its flourishing arts and culture scene, all the while enjoying its delicious local food and wine. And still have time to dance on that famous bridge: Le Pont D'Avignon .

Sign up for a private Avignon tour and explore this region of southern France with a knowledgable local guide.

A walking tour is the best way to experience Avignon's medieval city centre. Follow your guide through the grounds of the gorgeous Gothic Palais des Papes, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Those with more time can visit the remains of Chateauneuf-du-Pape, a castle built for Pope XXII. Vineyards surround the ruins, so ask your guide to arrange a private tasting. Otherwise, an Avignon wine bar like 17 Place aux Vins should suffice. Choose from their 800 wines, sit back and sip.
