The Camargue

Reviewed By LindaE798 - Parrish, United States

My longtime friend invited me to visit her in Lyon, with a side trip to the Provence and the Camargue. It was an amazing trip. We stayed at her sea Flat in Port Camargue. From there we visited Aigues-Mortes. It is a medieval walled city, with working gates. The crusaders under the lead of St Louis, the French King Louis XI, started their crusades from there. The city is surrounded by salt flats, where the locals still get salt. The Camargue is worth a trip for history buffs, nature lovers, and beach goers. The cuisine is very palatable with many dishes from the region.

Parc Naturel Regional de Camargue

Reviewed By MikesWorld1111 - Nice, France

I am happy we took a guided tour of the Camargue because the guide was very informative. He bought us to pet the white horses of Camargue. He explained the differences between Camargue and Spanish bulls. Took us to a small village on the sea called St. Marie and finally we went to observe the flamingos ... All of this in about 4 hours.

Les Marais du Vigueirat

A protected natural site of 1,200 hectares at the junction in between the Rhône’s delta and the Crau steppe, the Marais du Vigueirat is classified as a National Nature Reserve and is one of the most remarkable properties of the Conservatoire du Littoral in Camargue. There are over 2,000 animal and plant species: more than 300 bird species have been observed (herons, flamingos, birds of prey), and 5 bull and horse breeders of Camargue’s race graze all year on the domain. With or without a guide, by foot, horseback or a horse-drawn carriage, come and discover Camargue’s nature!
