Arles brings together an old town of narrow lanes, Roman remains and Provençal façades. The city is easy to explore on foot, taking in shady squares, historic buildings and the banks of the Rhône. It suits travellers who enjoy combining heritage visits, museums and walks in a manageable-sized city, also marked by Van Gogh’s stay and the landscapes of Provence.

The Arles Amphitheatre, a former Roman arena still used for events, is 450 m away. The Baths of Constantine bear witness to the city’s ancient urban planning, while the Cryptoporticoes are underground galleries beneath the former forum. The Réattu Museum displays art collections in a former palace of the Grand Priory. Arles railway station is 900 m away, making it possible to reach the centre on foot with your luggage. Nîmes-Alès-Camargue-Cévennes Airport is 18 km away; the property has no parking.

You can start the day with the Roman monuments and continue to the Museum of Ancient Arles, dedicated to the history of the city and region. The streets of the centre lead to places painted by Van Gogh, before a walk along the Rhône. For an excursion, the Camargue offers marshland scenery, flamingos and discovery trails; the Alpilles and Provençal villages are another option. Spring and autumn are good seasons for walking tours, while summer days are often hot: plan outdoor walks for early morning or late afternoon.
