The route
The driver leaves the port on the A55 and A7, then heads up the Rhône valley to Avignon-Sud and the Porte de la Ligne or Place de l’Horloge.
Arriving in Avignon
Inside the walls
You are dropped as close as possible to the Palais des Papes, depending on which streets are open to traffic, and the driver tells you where he will pick you up.
End of cruise
If you are disembarking for good, the driver takes you to your hotel in Avignon or to Avignon TGV station.
A call in Marseille, a day in Avignon
For a shore excursion, give us your all-aboard time: the driver sets the departure time from the site with a margin for traffic and brings you back to the terminal in time. With several people, the 8-seat Van brings the cost to about €31 per person one way.
To combine Avignon with a Luberon village or the Pont du Gard, book a driver at your disposal for the day instead: he waits for you at each stop.
What you can see in one call
With three hours on site you can visit the Palais des Papes, walk up to the Rocher des Doms, see the Pont Saint-Bénézet and lunch on Place de l’Horloge. Tickets for the palace and bridge can be booked online to skip the queue. With a long call, you can add the Pont du Gard, half an hour from Avignon, with a driver at your disposal keeping an eye on the all-aboard time.
