Once you have left the port of Marseilles you will arrive to Avignon after approx. 1 hour. Six hundred years ago Avignon had a period
of prosperity thanks to the Pope who moved here with his court. Seven Popes were here one after another from 1309 to 1403.
You will visit the Pope's Palace, which is a palace but also a fortress full of galleries, rooms and chapels that nowadays are empty
and give an image of austerity. Nevertheless the hand made carpets may suggest the vanity of that time. There will be free time for
shopping before returning to the ship.

and economic centre. A pleasant stroll in the historic town centre will give you the opportunity to admire some of the most important
monuments, from the ancient amphitheatre to the cathedral, which is a masterpiece of Romanesque art. You will have some free
time to try some French gastronomic specialities and walk around the historic centre: you can use this time to discover and
appreciate the views so beloved of Van Gogh who, attracted by the light in the south of France, came to Arles in 1888 and found
here the inspiration to paint some of the masterpieces that immortalised his talents. The next stop is the stunningly evocative town of
Saint Remy, with its typical Provencal village atmosphere. Your guide will accompany you on a tour of the Church of Saint Martin and
the elegant Renaissance palaces, one of which is the birthplace of Nostradamus, the controversial astrologer, chemist and writer,
famed for his enigmatic prophecies. After some free time for Provencal souvenir shopping you will return to the coach to return to

INFORMATIONS
This trip will take you to the highly original Guell Park. Gaudì initially envisaged this area as a large English-style park, but successively
its creation was largely entrusted to one of his disciples, Josep Maria Jujol. Its undulating benches covered in ceramic fragments of
many shapes and colours are fascinating objects, whose numerous details and shades will certainly catch your eye. You will have
time to stroll along the paths of this marvellous park, before boarding your coach for the short trip to "Eixample" district, where the
famous "Sagrada Familia" (outside visit only) cathedral is situated. A local guide will give you a detailed commentary of the details of
the façade. Finally, you will have some free time, as many of you will certainly be tempted to do some shopping. Your next stop will
be Casa Mila, better known as "La Pedrera" (The Stone Quarry), which certainly represents Gaudì's most mature work. No other
building could better represent Modernism. This was the last residential building to be designed by Gaudì and was built between
1906 and 1912. It is characterised by a myriad of revolutionary details, which testify to the artist's creativity and extraordinary
technical mastery. The next masterpiece on your itinerary is Casa Batllo, a residential building that exudes dreamlike atmosphere.
You will be able to admire its façade, which is completely covered in a multicoloured mosaic of shiny scales. The same technique has
been used for the roof. The suggestive façade recalls the legend of Saint George and his fight with the dragon: according to this
reading, the cross can be interpreted as the tail of the dragon and the row of balconies as the bones of its victims. On your way back
to the ship you will cross the commercial heart of the old city and of Barcelona itself - the famous Plaza de Catalunya - and the
harbour area.

The first destination on the excursion will be La Sagrada Familia, icon and symbol of the city of Barcelona and a landmark for visitors
from all over the world, often considered to be one of the most extraordinary monuments ever constructed by man. It is an imposing
neo-Gothic church, designed using the great medieval cathedrals as models of reference, and constructed in a modernist style (the
Catalan version of Art Nouveau). The project and its realisation was entrusted to renowned architect Antoni Gaudì (just over thirty
years of age at the time), who worked on it for the rest of his life. Having begun in 1882, work still continues today following the
plans laid down by its designer: the fact that you'll be able to watch one of the masterpieces of world architecture being constructed
before your very eyes will make your visit even more fascinating. Your guide will show you the two completed facades (the Nativity
and the Passion facades) and will then lead you inside the church where expert craftsmen continue to work on a masterpiece in
constant evolution. Next it's on Passeig de Gràcia, the trendiest boulevard in town that hosts the most impressive modernist
buildings. Casa Batlló is a building restored by the famous Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí, and Josep Maria Jujol. The house was built
in 1877 and remodeled in the years 1904-1906. You will be able to enjoy a unique, unusual and exceptional experience in a piece
that it is more than just a building; it is among the all-time legends of world art, architecture and design. A reference point of
modernism that seduces with its allegorical values, starting from its peculiar Façade, that recalls the legend of Saint George and his
fight with the dragon. Your trip will end at the famous “ Manzana de la Discordia” (Block of Discord); so named because various
traders and aristocrat families wanted their houses done in the latest style and each hired a different architect. After we will walk till
Palau de la Musica Catalana located next to the Gothic Quarter, designed by Lluis Domènech i Montaner. The Palau de la Música
Catalana is one of the most unique concert venues in the world and one of the most representative monuments of Catalan Art
Nouveau, really impressive from outside as well.

to 2005, was particularly influential in boosting the growth of the principality. Thanks to his fairytale wedding with American actress

charitable purposes. Your excursion will begin in Monaco Ville, the fortified old town, which sits on a rocky promontory commanding
a quite spectacular view of the Mediterranean. Here you'll be able to visit the Royal Palace square and, depending on the arrival
