The gentleman who gave us...

The gentleman who gave us the tour was nice, but he did not know much, if any, of the history of the City and/or the specific places he was taking us to see. That is my biggest gripe is that he should have know more about what he was taking us to see. His English was also not the best. Basically we paid more that we should have for someone to just walk us in a circle around the city.

This 90-minute walk is designed as an introduction to Marseille and complemented by local stories and recommendations.

Great Tour by Local Guide in Marseilles

Roger was our guide- he gave a wonderful tour full of history but also gave us a local perspective. He recommended plenty to do after the tour but a specific restaurant which we LOVED, L'Entrecôte Du Quai. Food was great and so was the service.

A tour of the heart of Marseille

Excellent tour that invited us into the heart of Marseille. Our guide Francois gave us a tour that covered the important buildings and cultural spots, interspersed with stops at places of interest including a stop to see boules being played. He shared with us the historical events that made the city and current events that shape Marseille. He was in no rush and stayed with us a bit longer than the tour to show us the old port area entrance.

Learned a lot in 90 minutes

We had a great experience with local guide, Kevin. We received regular and useful communications leading up to the tour. Kevin was on time, listened to what our interests were, and was very interesting and knowledgeable. We expressed we were interested in the history of Marseille and Kevin focused on that.

More Than Just Touristy

Andrii was an excellent tour guide, taking us to some picturesque locales as well as some places that were more “off the beaten path” - markets, local favorites, etc. He is incredibly knowledgeable about Marseille’s history, hubbub, and hangouts. Our tour was full of fun, intrigue, and a newfound appreciation for this cultural melting pot.
