St-Rémy is located on the plains at the northern edge of Les Alpilles and is the town where Nostradamus was born, and Van Gogh painted Starry Night. Here you can enjoy the charm of a typically Provençal way of life by strolling along the boulevards, exploring restaurants and shops, browsing at the Wednesday morning market or visiting the galleries where resident artists display their work.
There is so much to do in this area of idyllic villages, famous towns, vineyards and glimpses of vibrant summer sunflowers. Nearby Les Baux-de-Provence has charming squares and narrow streets with stunning views across the Crau plain, the Camargue and the city of Arles. Mausanne-les-Alpilles is yet another delightful village and you shouldn’t miss the hilltop village of Eygalières, one of the prettiest spots in Provence where a handful of celebrities appreciate peace and privacy.
Take a boat trip on the Rhône in Avignon or stop at the other historic city of Arles as you journey to La Camargue with its wild terrain, beaches, windswept white horses and iconic pink flamingos.
