Does anyone have an idea for a one day car drive through Provence? We will be there in mid-July and would like to see little towns and such. Our starting and ending point is Arles. Pleas share any suggestions or experiences.

We just returned from France. We rented our car in Arles and drove to the small seaside town of Stes-Maries-de-la-Mer. It's less than an hour away from Arles. It was a sleepy little town, perfect for relaxing. Along the way, we drove through the Camargue, which is known for the wild flamingos.
After lunch, we drove through Nimes and stopped to view Pont du Gard. It's an amazing Roman aqueduct. From there, we continued driving to Avignon.
These are easy drives and full of wonderful sites. Enjoy your experience!
