The Isle sur le Sorge market described in a great fun, but extremely crowded. To enjoy it you must get there early - certainly by 9 a.m. otherwise you will be struggling not just to park, but also to walk, to find a spot for a drink and lunch, it is that crowded, but charming. Of all towns to pick beyond that one, I have no idea why he would be Arles. Although it is a town made famous by artists, particularly Van Gogh, and has some historical value (like the Roman coliseum) that is still used for bullfights, there are many more beautiful towns with better markets than Arles. To me, Arles is rather run down, not attractive, and not what it should be and could be. It is certainly a tourist mecca where one can find an overpriced and inferior lunch.
