A proposito di questo tour

Welcome to Marseille, my city, my home, and a place I know like the back of my hand. This tour isn’t about ticking off the usual spots—it’s about experiencing Marseille as locals do. We’ll navigate through the vibrant alleys of Le Panier, the city’s oldest district, where each street tells a story of traders, artists, and revolutionaries. Poi, we’ll wind our way down to the Vieux-Port, where the smell of fresh seafood and saltwater fills the air. You’ll hear tales of fishermen, see stunning coastal views, and discover why Marseille’s history is as diverse as its people. By the end, you’ll feel the pulse of this ancient port city, alive with tradition and change.

Itinerario

We’ll start in the vibrant Le Panier neighborhood, exploring its narrow, winding streets and learning about Marseille’s beginnings. The area is full of street art, quaint cafes, and quirky shops that give you a taste of authentic Marseille.

A short walk up to the basilica offers one of the best views in the city. From here, you’ll see Marseille sprawling below you, the Mediterranean stretching to the horizon, and the Frioul Islands in the distance. I’ll share the stories of this iconic lookout point.

We’ll end the tour at the bustling Vieux-Port, where fishermen still bring in their catch each morning. You’ll taste bouillabaisse, a classic Marseillais fish stew, and hear about the ancient trade routes that made Marseille the melting pot it is today.

Great experience

Our guide brought us to places we’d never have found on our own. The bouillabaisse tasting was delicious!

Eccellente, probabilmente il migliore finora.

Questo è stato un viaggio fantastico. Mi sono completamente innamorato del Vietnam, Abbiamo fatto così tanto in due settimane. Il ciclismo, in qualche modo. sembrava solo una piccola parte dell'esperienza poiché c'erano così tante altre cose che abbiamo fatto. Ogni giorno era pieno, eccezionalmente ben organizzato, ottimo cibo, ecc. Ho fatto alcuni viaggi in bicicletta, e penso che questo sia stato il migliore finora.

Fantastic Trip

I am a little late in posting a review. We returned from this trip in early March, right when everything started to close down due to Covid-19. I can tell you that the memories of this trip have kept me going while sheltering in place. If you are thinking this might be the trip for you, please know that it is very fast paced with moving from place to place almost every night was quite challenging. The cycling itself was challenging based on ones fitness level. My husband completed every kilometer, while I did about three-quarters of the cycling. A lot of it depends on the heat, but for a female in my early 50s, I found it very doable. We had the most fabulous guide and crew. I cannot say enough of about our guide Son - he was absolutely amazing - taking care of all the details while we enjoyed ourselves. There are plenty of water/snack stops with fresh fruit and amazing snacks (ginger/nuts/cookies). They take very good care of you.
