VILLAGE DES TORTUES (LE)

Description
A natural 2 hectare park, in the middle of Provencal swamp land where over 2500 tortoises are housed and protected.

The best times to come are as follows:
- During the summer, the morning at feeding time and at the end of the day.
- During the rest of the year, from 11am to 4pm, when the tortoises mate and are the most lively.

There is a snack on site, picnic tables, play areas and a car park.

Price: 10€ for adults / 6€ for children from April to October and 7€ for adults / 4€ for children from November to March.
