Highlights
We propose you to live with us a real local activity: petanque! This ancestral game has become a real local sport. A "game of balls" is always followed by an aperitif: we will take it together in a friendly atmosphere. Whether you know how to play or not, the main thing is to spend a friendly moment around an ancient game! We will start the activity with a visit of the house of the ball, in the heart of the Basket, to get in the mood. After an explanation on the origin of the game and the place visited, we will launch hostilities a stone's throw away. It is on the Esplanade de la Major that together we will try the art of petanque. After an hour of intense play, it will be time for a well deserved local aperitif! Good humor and convivilaité will be the key words.

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.
Top-ranked sights in Marseille: Notre-Dame de la Garde Basilica (La Bonne Mère), Old Port of Marseille (Vieux Port), Vallon des Auffes.
