AVIGNON PROVENCE
WALK with a GREETER
COME FOR A GREET WITH A LOCAL
Greet in Avignon Provence with one of its inhabitants, a Greeter
Avignon in Provence, its international theater festival, its Palais des Papes, its ramparts, its bridge (of Avignon!), its river, Provence with its vineyards and its lavender fields… Yes! But, not only that … Come and discover with a resident, a “local”, a city, a region open to the world, rich in its historical past, its landscape from Sorgues to Ventoux, its streets, its squares in the shade of plane trees, sound of cicadas, under the incomparable blue sky of Provence. An atmosphere to share, in good company!
Greeters welcome you, they don’t know everything, but they know a lot about their places of life and will be able to find you, for you, the right addresses according to your cultural, artistic, sporting… and gastronomic tastes.
Come and stroll, nose in the air and breathe!

My city Avignon, magnifique
Born in Carpentras, capital of Comtat Venaissin, I have lived in the heart of Avignon since 1978…
And in my free time, even today, I never stop discovering this magnificent city full of history which, in addition to its papal palace and its bridge, is full of small squares and unexpected alleys. I would be very happy to introduce them to you during your stay in Vaucluse. So, I’ll see you soon!

ALAIN
Stroll around Avignon at your own pace
Come and discover with Alain, from the top of the gardens overlooking the river, the jewels of the Provençal landscapes and understand this very special city, Avignon, with its astonishing past between France and the property of the Popes. A place of passage between the Mediterranean and northern Europe, with this Rhône valley at the same time, an eternal traffic corridor, from the Roman roads to our “national 7” and also an impassable barrier between Provence and Occitanie! Stroll at your own pace, nose in the air and discover unusual places along the alleys and small squares. Alain will share with you his taste for landscapes, architecture, cultures of all countries and his knowledge of the most beautiful surrounding villages which he discovers and rediscovers every day on foot, running or by bike!

My discoveries in Vaison
Après avoir découvert la région (Drôme, Vaison, le Lubéron, …) lors de vacances sur
plusieurs étés et plus adeptes des espaces naturels que de la ville, l’idée de venir s’y
installer a germée.
Des changements professionnels m’ont permis de franchir le pas.
Désormais installé à Vaison La Romaine, c’est l’occasion de vous faire découvrir et
partager ce magnifique coin de Provence en Haut Vaucluse.

ANA
Looking forward to strolling together!
Native of “distant Central America”, my name is Ana and I am based in France. I was happily welcomed by French people who love their region and are open to all cultures. Like me, I will show you the south of France and Avignon in particular where I will offer you an original tour of the wonders of local heritage, known and lesser known, commented in your native language, Spanish, English or French. Looking forward to strolling together!
