Ahhhh Avignon – enchantingly charming and preposterously pretty, even by Provençal standards. This rampart-ringed medieval city was once the epicenter of papal power, and it shows. The Palais des Papes would be right at home in Rome.
Scope out the stunning architecture, cultural wonders, and glorious countryside scenery of Avignon, Villeneuve-lès-Avignon, and the Island of Barthelasse in the most relaxing and convenient way there is: aboard a Hop-on Hop-off sightseeing tour bus.
