Discover Marseille, the oldest city in France and one of the most fascinating destinations on the Mediterranean, on a walking tour accompanied by an official guide. With more than 2,600 years of history, this port city combines an extraordinary historical heritage with a rich cultural diversity and a unique cosmopolitan atmosphere.
This tour departs from Marseille's Old Port to explore a lesser-known area of the city, revealing the fascinating avenues and architecture that emerged during the Second French Empire. This is the city's least touristy, most local central area: the real Marseille, fascinating and undiscovered.
The itinerary includes the Opera House, the imposing Prefecture building, the exterior of the Cantini Museum, Cours Julien, the historicist church of Les Réformés and the Canebière avenue, along with several hidden gems that reveal a different side of Marseille. The tour ends at the spectacular Longchamp Palace, one of the city's great monumental complexes.
As this is a small-group experience, with up to 20 participants, the tour unfolds at a more personalized pace, allowing you to gain deeper insight into the history, architecture and Mediterranean identity that make Marseille one of the must-visit destinations in the south of France.
