Nimes and Arles rail trip through Roman France and the Camargue

Railbookers runs Nimes and Arles, a 6-day, 5-night independent rail package through Roman France and the Provençal countryside. The trip opens with three nights in Nimes, where grand Roman monuments are the centerpiece, with the chance to take an optional trip to nearby Avignon or Montpellier. Travelers then head to Arles for two nights to see its own Roman ruins and to discover the wild, beautiful landscapes of the Camargue. With multi-night stays in each city rather than one-night stops, this is a relaxed pace. As an independent rail package, this suits travelers who want trains and hotels arranged for them while setting their own pace exploring Roman history and Provence. Prices start from 1,099 US dollars.
