Avignon Calèches

Take the time to enjoy discovering Avignon off the beaten path!

At the same pace taken in the Middle Ages, let yourself be transported at the rhythm of a horse-drawn coach. Christinaand her horse take you through the old winding streets of the historical city centre. Relax and enjoy a half-an-hour tour which takes from the Popes' Palace Square, along the old cobblestone streets such as Rue de Petite Calade, Rue Viala, Rue desCiseaux d'Or and Rue Peyrollerie. See the charming Place Crillon, Place Saint-Pierre, and La Mirande, and all the monumentssurrounding these graceful city squares. Up you go to the gardens atop the Rocherdes Doms and drink in the magnificent views over the Rhône River Valley, Barthelasse Island and the neighbouring villages.

Tickets: adult: 10 € / children under 12: 5€ / children under 4: free.

And be sure to think of calling upon the horse and coach for your special private events.


Also, book ahead to request a coach ride along the opposite bank of the Rhone, from where you have magnificent views of the city of Avignon. From Barthelasse Island, the historical city, the pont d'Avignon and the Rocher des Doms can be seen in all their serene splendour.
