The Nîmes City Guides deal with the questions every visitor brings: where to find a proper lunch formule instead of a photo menu, which Roman sites to see in what order, how to reach the Pont du Gard and the Camargue without a car and which terraces are worth an apéro. Each guide is a short, opinionated list with the reason to go, what to order or look for and one practical tip for every place, and it opens in your browser as soon as you have paid.

Three places from the guides
Cafés Nadal
Rue Saint-Castor, near the cathedral
An old-style roaster and grocer whose smell of fresh beans reaches the pavement. Shelves hold tea, sweets, spices and regional jams, and the coffee is ground while you wait. From the food guide.
Gard O Wine
Place du Marché, by the crocodile fountain
Tables on one of the loveliest little squares in town, between the palm tree and the crocodile fountain. Let the staff pour you a local Costières and order the truffle stracciatella to share. From the nightlife guide.
Ornithological Park of Pont de Gau
Camargue, on the Arles to Saintes-Maries road
Marsh paths and hides where flamingos stand only metres away, with herons and egrets around them. The flamingos stay all year, so it works as a winter outing too; give it about two hours. From the day trips guide.
Plan your days in Nîmes
Day one is Roman: the Arena first thing, the Maison Carrée and a lunch formule near Les Halles, then the Jardin de La Fontaine and the Tour Magne in the soft late light, and an apéro on Place du Marché. Day two leaves town: a liO bus to the Pont du Gard for a swim and a paddle, or a train to Arles or Aigues-Mortes, back in time for dinner. For a rainy or slow day, take the Musée de la Romanité, the Beaux-Arts and the Némausa pool, and remember most city museums close on Monday.
