Avignon, France
On y danse, on y danse !Parcours audioguidé pour visiter Avignon
This tour invites you into the heart of a sovereign city, a Gothic jewel set along the river’s edge. Let yourself be captivated by the power of its golden-hued ramparts and the refined elegance of its palaces, each one telling the story of its past as a Christian capital. From the cool shade of cobbled lanes to the lively buzz of its tree-lined squares, Avignon reveals a character that feels at once dignified, artistic, and deeply rooted in Provence. As you explore on foot—between terraced gardens and pale limestone horizons—you’ll uncover the spirit of a city where monumental history continues to pulse alongside contemporary creativity.

Avignon enjoys a Mediterranean climate, characterized by hot, dry summers easily climbing to 31°C and mild winters fluctuating between 2°C and 11°C, with generous sunshine often accompanied by a powerful Mistral wind. The ideal period runs from May to September to enjoy the Provençal atmosphere and the golden stone architecture. The month of July is the beating heart of the global cultural season, while June and September offer perfect mildness for exploring the historical heritage and shaded terraces without the intensity of the summer heatwaves.

Street parking's also an option in the orange and yellow zones, for up to 4 hours. You'll have to pay directly at the parking meter or download the Paybyphone app. The further away you are from the center, the better your chances of finding free parking.
