Pont du Gard

Great experience with Gordona! Super knowledgeable and so friendly! Highly recommend this tour! Great experience!

Anne was wonderful. She was funny, and filled the silence with great information. To visit Avignon and not take a tour with her or a colleague would be a disservice to yourself! The sites were great, but the wine tasting was fabulous! I would have liked a bit more wine, but who wouldn’t! Thanks, Anne!

The guide, “Terry,” was knowledgeable and friendly and rearranged the tour to make the most of the unusually rainy weather. Also, he went out of his way to help us catch a bus after the tour.

This tour was very good for seeing a little of Nimes, Uzes and the Pont du Gard and was the only way we could have done it in the time.. We would have liked more time to explore Nimes ideally. The minivan was very clean and comfortable and the guide extremely knowledgeable - it was like a university education in the area's history! Guillaime was very personable and happy to answer all sorts of questions. We enjoyed the morning and would recommend the tour.

Our driver /guide was a great source of information. We expected to see the Roman sites but she also pointed out many other places of interest en route. The car we travelled in was clean and comfortable. There were only 3 of us on the trip and we never felt rushed. We did have to pay an extra 5 euros to get into Pont du Gard. I would recommend the firm and the tour.

Our guide for the day, Thierry, did much more than required to make our day a special one. Moreover, he knew his local history and its larger context -- after all, the day is all about Roman history -- and he also managed to work in some medieval history, too. I particularly enjoyed the Pont-du-Gard aquaduct (be sure to see it from the top of the cliffs on each side of the structure, which requires ascending a lot of steps, but it will be worth it, particularly if the sun striked one side of the ruin more than the other), the Roman arena in Nîmes (which as far as I'm concerned is a full-fledged Roman colliseum, so massive is it -- even if much smaller than the one in Rome), and don't forget the Roman temple only a block or two away in Nîmes, which is well worth seeing because it's so well-preserved. (I had the impression that seeing the temple was "optional," though I could be wrong -- in any event, I certainly did not want to miss it, especially since it was such a short walk from the arena.) The visit to Uzes has nothing to do with Roman history, but it's a nice place to take a break between the Roman ruins in Pont-du-Gard and Nîmes, and since the Uzes visit falls around lunch time you can grab a bit to eat there. I highly recommend the ratatouille at Les Terroirs, if you want to experience this classic local fare (which was often surprisingly absent from menus elsewhere): it was perfect, and quite possibly the best dish I ate while in France.

The small towns are so beautiful. The Roman aqueduct is amazing and interesting. Well worth the day.

Just excellent way to visit the overall area in the beginning of our vacation. Jeremy was excellent. We all enjoyed ourselves and learned a lot. We then went back to key areas where we wanted to spend more time. Many thanks to Jeremy. Nelson Burns

Vero was the best tour guide ever. The sights, the explanations, the schedule... everything was great! One hundred percent recommended! You MUST book this day trip. No doubts.

We took an all day tour of Historical Provence w a lovely guide, Veronica. She was extremely knowledgeable about the sites, local culture, wine and food. Plus, she had a charming demeanor and was able to speak in English and Russian to accommodate the two couples on the tour. We only wished that she could have accompanied us to each of the sites with her expert commentaries.

The selection of sites to visit is perfect for a one-day intro to Provence. Our guide Amar was friendly, knowledgable and very helpful.

My wife and I selected this tour because it covered Pont Du Garde. We weren't sure the weather would cooperate but it did. It was just the 2 of us with our wonderful guide. She knew everything and we had a wonderful time talking. The section to Uzes was unexpectedly great since that was the spring that the Pont du garde was built to use. Great pictures. So this trip showed the start of the water for the Pont Du Garde and the Pont Du Garde as well as the spring in Nimes that was also used by the Romans. Stunning terrain and awesome guide!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
