Question 2

What is the best time of year to visit?

Question 3

Is the Saturday market worth visiting?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the Saturday market on Place aux Herbes is widely considered one of the finest weekly markets in southern France, with a strong showing of local food producers, artisans, and regional crafts. It is the main reason many visitors choose a Saturday arrival.

Is the town suitable for families with children?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the town is very family-friendly, with the Haribo candy museum, the Saturday market, river swimming at the Pont du Gard, and the walkable old town all suitable for children. The pace is relaxed and the old town streets are largely car-free.
