This day that is dedicated to cultural tourism will lead to the discovery of our region, its monuments and their history. The wonderful trip will start in the town of Uzès; an elegant town that kept a lot of monuments from is rich past. After have done a guided tour to help understand all the monuments, you will be able to enjoy the scents and colours of the great Provencal market, a typical must do in the south of France.

It is one of the most visited monuments of France so if you come to study French in Montpellier, do not hesitate to go on an excursion organised by our French Language School to discover it. You will get the full lunch break to just sit and admire this wonderful landmark.

After a leap into French culture and history with the Pont du Gard, the private bus of our French Language School in Montpellier will bring you towards Avignon and its famous bridge on which we dance, and sing! Avignon offers an amazing urban landscape between the bridge, the ancient Cité and the Rhone river, the Rocher des Doms, the Remparts and the gigantic and well-known Palais des Papes.

You will discover its wonders through a guided tour of the town, an immersion into Avignon’s atmosphere, its legends and story. You will get to admire the entire city and its surroundings from the Rocher des Doms, a fantastic panorama that will blow you away!
