Marseille in 2 days — FAQ

Is 2 days enough for Marseille?
Two days covers the Old Port, the basilica and a Calanques trip on day one and a Provence day trip to Aix or Cassis on day two — a great balance of city and region.
What should I not miss in 2 days in Marseille?
The Old Port and Le Panier, Notre-Dame de la Garde, a Calanques boat trip, bouillabaisse, and a day trip to Aix-en-Provence or Cassis.
Is Aix or Cassis better from Marseille?
Aix-en-Provence is the elegant inland city of fountains and Cézanne; Cassis is the pretty coastal port and gateway to the Calanques — both are lovely; pick by your taste.
