Marseille Sightseeing private tour
Step back in time and learn about the history of Marseille!
Whether you're interested in history, culture, art, gourmet food, beautiful beaches, scenic villages, hilltop historic towns, vineyards, etc. , you'll find it ALL around Marseille!
Marseille is on the Mediterranean sea near a rocky, mountainous, coastline with limestone cliffs (Calanques) around small inlets. The sea cliffs are the highest in Europe.
Visit "Notre Dame de la Garde" basilica and enjoy a panoramic view of the Phocean city. Admire the Saint Victor Abbey and its 4th-century crypt and the famous Cathedral. Discover "La Major" and the "Vieille Charité" 17th century listed building. Finally, relax around the famous new museum of Marseille "MUCEM" and the "Villa Méditerrannée" just at the edge of the marvellous seaside facing the Frioul Islands and "Chateau d'If".
As a special highlight of the day I will be delighted to share with you a hidden secret spot in the southern part of the city where I used to go with my family. Come along and discover this amazing city through the eyes of a local!
