Discover Nimes The French Rome - Free Tour
♡ Save
Come to fall in love with the city of Nîmes, I propose you a 2H walking tour to discover the most iconic monuments of the city. Between tradition and modernity, embark on the discovery of a city proud of its two thousand year old heritage.
1) Marvel at the Roman amphitheater which is still in use today (concerts, shows, corridas)
2) Stroll around the Maison Carrée, one of the best conserved Roman temples and a UNESCO World Heritage candidate for the 2023 session.
3) Observe the Tour Magne, a former watched tower from the Gallic period, overlooking the Jardins de la Fontaine, the cradle of life in the area.
In addition to this unavoidable triptych, you will discover the places that are dear to the people of Nîmes and that make it much more than a museum town: walking through the pedestrian streets of the city, discovering the secret squares that the locals love, sharing good addresses to discover the local specialties and the warm atmosphere of a city with a Hispanic flavor...
The Walking Tour is based on a hat payment. Give what you want.
