Palace of the Popes in Avignon, France
  • Tour the Palace of the Popes in Avignon, France. Pope Clement V resided here and ushered in a string of seven popes that called Avignon home before the papacy returned to Rome in the 14th century.
     
  • Enjoy a guided tour of the picturesque town of Viviers, France. Old Town Viviers has a beautiful mix of historic influences, including Roman and medieval, perhaps best exemplified in the 11th-century Viviers Cathedral.
     
Vineyard in Tournon, France
  • Head to the medieval cities of Tournon and Tain l'Hermitage to view the historic ruins and the Castle of Tournon. You could also learn about the area's famous vineyards and sample their world-renowned red wines.
     
  • Visit Vienne and learn about its Roman influences. There's the Temple of Augustus and Livia, a preserved Roman temple that was converted into a church. Other highlights include the Vienne Roman Theater and the Cathedral of Saint Maurice.
     
Cathedral in Lyon, France
  • Explore Arles, one of the temporary homes of Vincent van Gogh. Many consider his time spent in Arles to be his most creative, as he completed 186 paintings of the people and landscapes. You'll also discover the beautiful wildlife of this region at the Camargue National Park, where more than 400 species of birds fly free.
     
  • In Lyon, the gastronomic capital of the region, you can try Beaujolais, a wine made from handpicked grapes. Architectural highlights include Place des Terreaux square, Old Town Lyon (a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site) and the Basilique Notre-Dame de Fourviere, which looks over Lyon from atop Fourviere Hill.
