About the trip

Riviera Travel's week-long solo tour sets its pace in Aix-en-Provence, a town where fountains quietly outnumber the people and Cézanne found his inspiration. Days unfold with guided walks through streets that have witnessed Roman baths, medieval spires, and artists' footsteps.

Venturing to the Camargue offers a change to flat marshlands draped with flamingos and white horses against salt pans. The Roman legacy lingers in Arles with its amphitheatre and, along the coastline, Cassis presents a fishing port framed by medieval forts and limestone coves seen from a small boat. Avignon’s Papal Palace recalls a time when popes ruled far from Rome, and the Pont du Gard still spans its river with Roman engineering.

The week allows one free day to wander Aix's fountains and galleries or sample regional markets. With Riviera Travel organising this escorted exploration for solo travellers, the focus is on local presence and time to absorb, not rushing to the next highlight on a checklist.
