Arles Travel Provence and St Remy

Arles Travel Provence offers Van Gogh Arles Tours seeing his St Remy sanatorium also with a visit to the magnificent and intact Arles amphitheatre.

Whist Vincent Van Gogh spent a lot of his short life in this region and painted 150 canvases during his 10 month voluntary stay at Mausole sanitorium in St Remy de Provence, none of his original paintings are to be found in Arles or St Remy- the nearest being in Marseille, Aix and Montpellier.

St Remy de Provence is just 15 minutes drive from your base at Villa la Pinede in Maussane les Alpilles.

ARLES TOURS TO ARLES AMPHITHEATRE

During your Arles travel, a visit to the magnificent recently restored Arles Amphitheatre is always part of our Arles Tours! The arena is still regularly used for bull-fighting- with the bull not being killed, other spectacles and Roman re-enactments such as charioteering and gladiator fighting usually at the end of August.

Just by the Arles Amphithetre is the 'Yellow House' and in one room is a mock-up of the famous Van Gogh Arles bedroom.

Arles Museum of Roman Antiquities

Arles Travel & our Arles Tours can also include a visit to the huge Roman antiquities museum just by the main bridge crossing the Rhone over to the Gard region. There is a very impressive display of well preserved and intact massive Roman statues and relics.
