Hello guys this is your captain Simon speaking! Today your mission, if you choose to accept it: step back 2,000 years and discover the Roman Empire… without leaving Provence.
Welcome to Roman Heritage where emperors once ruled, gladiators fought for glory, and engineers built structures so strong they’re still standing today. No museums behind glass here: this is real Roman history, carved in stone, under the open sky.
Think of it like your own time travel experience where modern life fades away and you suddenly step straight into Ancient Rome, surrounded by arenas, temples, and aqueducts still standing after two millennia.
From colossal monuments to elegant medieval towns, this journey takes you through one of the greatest civilizations in history… with a South of France twist.
So get ready, fasten your seat belt, and let’s travel back in time. Love, Simon
Our first stop takes us to Nîmes, also known as the “French Rome” — and once you step inside the arena, you’ll understand why.
Enter the Roman Amphitheatre, still standing after nearly 2,000 years. Picture gladiators in combat, roaring crowds, and pure ancient adrenaline filling the stone walls.
Then continue to the Maison Carrée, one of the best-preserved Roman temples in the world. Around it, elegant streets, fountains, and squares show how Roman architecture still shapes the city today.
Nîmes is not just a city it’s a living piece of the Roman Empire.
Next, we slow down in Uzès, a medieval gem with Roman roots and timeless southern elegance.
Wander through arcaded squares, stone streets, and boutique-lined alleys filled with local craftsmanship. Discover the Duchy Palace and the iconic Fenestrelle Tower, a rare circular Romanesque landmark.
This is also our lunch stop. Enjoy a relaxed break on a shaded terrace in one of the most beautiful small towns in Provence — the perfect pause before continuing our journey through history.
Final stop: the legendary Pont du Gard Roman Aqueduct a true masterpiece of Roman engineering and a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Built nearly 2,000 years ago, this aqueduct once carried water across the region with incredible precision. Its massive stone arches rise above the river like a monument to Roman genius.
Take your time to explore different viewpoints, walk around the site, and admire the scale of this incredible structure. In summer, the river below offers a refreshing natural break in a stunning landscape.
A perfect final chapter to our Roman time travel experience.
