Overview

From the port to the backstreets we make a full circle.
Along the way we see the Opera House the Police Building and many landmarks as we travel to the daily marketplace to tast the world of Marseilles.

It's an astonishing place bringing together an eclectic mix of people from across the world. Marseilles is NOT France, it is Italy, Greece, Egypt, Turkey and Colombia as all the cultures meld and influence the tastes of the city.

Simply one of the best places to eat in the world

Discover the secrets of this fascinating city as you walk the ancient streets in a city that began in 600 B.C.

Because we care about the planet, we have decided to stop giving water bottles systematically. Instead, we kindly request that you bring your refillable water bottle to ensure you stay hydrated throughout your journey. By doing so, together, we can make a positive impact on our environment!
