Read what each ticket includes

Consult current official ticket information. Check which spaces and date conditions an offer covers rather than relying on an old article. Save confirmations and review entry instructions before the visit.

Plan the walk between places

Locate each entrance and your breaks in the centre. Walking forms part of the outing and takes time. Ask about accessibility and allow a buffer before a reserved departure.

Add a discovery only if it fits

Avignon Tourisme presents monuments and activities nearby. Choose something that develops your interest instead of filling every hour. A meal and walk can be enough after a major indoor visit; check each venue separately.

Prepare your arrival point

Check the route from your station or accommodation and any centre access restrictions. Share a precise meeting point with your group and save addresses offline. A simple, current programme beats an unchecked list of monuments.
