Avignon and Pont du Gard are excellent. Orange is average and the Chateauneuf du Pape Wind tour is average because you do not go to the actual wineries. The guide was excellent. Very knowledgeable, very friendly, pleasant to be around, and kept me on schedule so we made it to every site.
Wish we had more time in Orange. Also never got to the chocolate maker's shop or workshop in the end.
