In the Footsteps of Van Gogh: Private Visit to Auvers-sur-Oise

What can we expect?
To discover Auvers-sur-Oise is to follow in the footsteps of Vincent Van Gogh. The Dutch master lived there for just seventy days, but created no fewer than eighty paintings. It was a particularly prolific period that marked his artistic career. Accompanied by a guide specialising in art history, you will visit the Auberge Ravoux, where the painter spent the last days of his tormented life. A stroll through the rural streets of Auvers-sur-Oise will immerse you in Van Gogh's work, and you'll be immersed in one of his paintings at every turn. A private, tailor-made tour - to suit your expectations - so you don't miss a thing!
