Activity itinerary

Old Port of Marseille
  • 10m
Marseille, one of France's oldest cities, owes much of its historical prominence to its strategic location on the Mediterranean Sea. Today the Old Port is a vibrant hub for gatherings, major celebrations and amazing fireworks and remains a cherished landmark for the people of Marseille.
Marseille
  • 30m
Marseille's history is a captivating tapestry woven from the influences of Romans, Moors, and a variety of migrant communities, notably from North Africa and Italy. This rich and diverse heritage has shaped a distinctive blend of languages, cuisines, and traditions, all firmly grounded in its enduring Mediterranean essence.
Rue de l'Évêché
  • 10m
Here we will taste panisse. It is a beloved Marseille specialty, made from chickpea flour and traditionally fried into golden, crispy slices. Originating from Ligurian and Provençal influences, it's a staple of local cuisine, often enjoyed as a snack or appetizer. Whether served hot at a seaside café or freshly prepared at home, panisse embodies the simple yet flavorful charm of Marseille’s culinary heritage.
Marseille
  • 30m
Immerse yourself in the charm of Marseille’s oldest district. To truly experience the magic of this legendary area, let yourself drift through its labyrinth of narrow streets, where a relaxed and welcoming vibe awaits. Delight in the vibrant street art adorning the facades, unwind at quaint café terraces, and explore the array of unique designer boutiques. It’s like stepping into an open-air museum, brimming with endless discoveries—pure enjoyment at every turn!
Rue Caisserie
  • 10m
Here we will taste another classic of Marseille, the "navettes". These iconic biscuits are shaped like small boats to honor the city's maritime heritage. Traditionally flavored with orange blossom, they have a delightful crunch and a subtly sweet, floral taste. Often enjoyed with coffee or tea, these biscuits are a cherished local treat, especially during the Candlemas festival, when their timeless charm shines brightest.
Rue de la Charité
  • 10m
La Vieille Charité (The Old Charity Centre), located in Marseille’s Panier district, is a 17th-century architectural treasure originally built as a shelter for the poor. Its elegant courtyard and domed chapel reflect Baroque beauty. Today, it thrives as a cultural center, hosting museums, galleries, and exhibitions that celebrate art and history.
Rue de l'Évêché
  • 10m
As a final stop, we'll learn more about a local product of Marseille, that will give you a taste of Provence. What will it be? Come find out!
Cathedrale de la Major
  • 10m
Known as the Cathedral of Sainte-Marie-Majeure or “La Major,” this iconic landmark is the only cathedral built in the 19th century, marking a 200-year hiatus in such constructions. Strategically placed near the new commercial port in La Joliette, it was designed to impress ships arriving from around the world, offering a lasting image of Marseille’s beauty and grandeur.
