About this activity
Meet us at the bus stop “Le Pharo” (bus 82 et 83) to start our tour along Marseille’s seaside !
First of all, we’ll walk up to the Pharo Palace, one of Marseille’s main attractions built in the 19th century. Also, we’ll have one of the best views over the Old Port, Notre Dame de la Garde, Le Panier neighbourhood and the Mediterranean sea while we walk all around this beautiful place ordered by Napoleon the 3rd.
Then, follow your guide along Marseille’s seaside walking on La Corniche avenue. We’ll pass by the famous Catalans beach on our way to the Vallon des Auffes, this small and typical port will have no secrets as your guide tells you everything about it.
After visiting le Vallon des Auffes, we’ll get up again on La Corniche from where we’ll get the best picture of the “Château d’If” and the Frioul islands as we keep on walking until we arrive at Malmousque district. This ancient port is now a beautiful neighbourhood plenty of narrow streets where we’ll stroll around while your guide reveals all its hidden stories.
What’s the best way to finish this tour on a hot day ? With a nice swim !
After the tour, your guide will show you the perfect spot where to jump into the crystalline water of the Mediterranean sea. Do not hesitate in taking your bath suit with you an even a mask and tuba if you feel like doing some snorkelling! (not included in the tour).
