Overview
I invite you to take an extraordinary walk in Nîmes, the French Rome: elegant and full of history.
Discover this wonderful city, very close to Montpellier, with a local Latin. And then enjoy its Christmas market.
We start at the iconic Bull of Nîmes, diagonal to the monumental Arena of Nîmes, and from there we walk to the Porte d'Auguste, Roman monumental gate.
We will cross historic streets and learn about the curious history of the Clock Tower.
Later, in an unexpected place, I will tell you how the most worn garment in the world is intimately linked to Nîmes. Do you know what it is?
We will continue to the Maison Carrée, a UNESCO heritage site, before entering the Jardins de la Fontaine and the enigmatic Temple of Diana. We will visit a legendary hotel where artists and celebrities have been staying for decades... Do you know which ones?
You will also discover the mystery of the crocodile, emblem of Nîmes, why does it appear on all its symbols? And more surprises!
The tour ends in front of the Arena of Nîmes, the best preserved Roman amphitheater in the world.
A perfect journey to discover the essence and mysteries of Nîmes.
