It's a nice walk in the city.

Day 1: Start at the Palais des Papes, the Papal Palace and then follow the signposts that lead you along the short walk to the Pont d’Avignon. Turn left and walk along the riverbank to reach the bridge Pont Édouard. Cross the bridge and turn right to enjoy the best view of Avignon. Drive to Aix-en-Provence to finish the day.
