• 5Jimmy was awesome!

  We had an absolutely outstanding time with Jimmy. The itinerary was planned by him and could not have been more perfect. Poor Jimmy…. We were all exhausted by the end of the day so he had a van of sleeping people. He was so kind and professional. The van was very clean. Truly, truly loved our day. Worth every penny.

• 5All the difference is made by the tour guide!

  This is really a great experience. Who made it very successful is the guide, Mr. Anoir- very knowledgeable, generous, decent, and patient. He’s a real gentleman. I think what makes difference in such experiences are not the places but the tour guides themselves. Mr. Anoir made the memories for the trip. I had 3 young kids who were noisy throughout the trip and he was so interactive and a good listener to them. He insisted to stop and invite us to a bite, snacks, and coffee though it wasn’t included in the booking, he did it on his owns out of courtesy where he didn’t have to. So grateful to him especially that I wasn’t able to leave a tip (not carrying cash and he didn’t get me the machine to pay).

About Marseille

Marseille, France's oldest city, is a Mediterranean port of old forts, hilltop basilicas and limestone coves, and the home of bouillabaisse.

Greek sailors founded Marseille around 600 BC, making it the oldest city in France. The Vieux-Port is its centre, a long harbour ringed by cafés and the morning fish stalls, guarded by two forts at its mouth. On a hill above, the basilica of Notre-Dame de la Garde carries a gilded statue of the Virgin Mary and shows the harbour and the islands from its terrace.
