What to expect
Your driver arrives at your door and takes you north to Auvers, a riverside village that feels largely unchanged since Van Gogh's time. You'll visit the Auberge Ravoux, where his modest upstairs room remains as it was—small, sparse, intimate. From there, the itinerary is yours: wander to the church he painted, find his grave alongside his brother Theo's, detour to Dr. Gachet's house if you wish, or climb to the castle for valley views. The driver waits, suggests quiet lunch spots, and helps you navigate. Expect cobbled streets, village pace, and the satisfaction of standing where he stood. Admission fees are separate; bring euros for entry tickets and meals.
