Activity itinerary

Palais de la Bourse (Pass by)

Located on the Canebière, the Palais de la Bourse, like most of the city’s monuments, is part of the Napoleonic era.

Port Antique (Pass by)

Great testimony to the founding of the city in 600 BC. C., the archaeological site of the Ancient Port, on your right, presents the remains of the city of Massalia, established by the Greeks more than 2,600 years ago.

Hôtel de Cabre (Pass by)

Look at the building on your right. It is the oldest house in Marseille.

L' Hotel de Ville (Pass by)

Located on the former site of the 13th-century Townhouse, this Town Inn is one of the few buildings in the area to survive the Second World War.

Quartier du panier (Pass by)

You are currently walking in the oldest district of Marseille, and one of the oldest in France!

Marseille (Pass by)

This colourful street of graffiti of all kinds testifies to the importance of street art in the city.

Centre de la Vieille Charite (Pass by)

At the end of the pleasant Place des Pistols, the Centre de la Vieille Charité stands out as one of the most important historic buildings in the city.

Cathedrale de la Major (Pass by)

Stunning, isn’t it? This magnificent cathedral represents the full power of the city.

Place de Lenche (Pass by)

Southern atmosphere guaranteed on this small square of the area lined with cafes and restaurants that unveil their large terraces during the summer season!

Le Vieux Port (Pass by)

Imagine, more than 2,600 years ago, that it was here that the Phocéens first landed to establish a city, Massalia, which today is among the three largest cities in France.

Basilique Notre Dame de la Garde (Pass by)

The Old Port of Marseille is also a breathtaking view of the Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde Basilica.

Eglise Saint-Ferreol (Pass by)

We are in the first arrondissement of Marseille, and it is at the crossroads, facing the quays, that we notice from afar the church of Saint-Ferréol.

L'Ombrière de Norman Foster (Pass by)

A real touch of modernity in the heart of one of the oldest districts in France!

Musee du Savon de Marseille La Licorne (Pass by)

How to visit Marseille without mentioning its famous soap? On your left is the Marseille Soap Museum, the city’s true identity known around the world.

Palais du Pharo (Pass by)

You have on your right, despite the grid, a very nice glimpse of a part of the Phocaean City. What’s interesting here is that you can see in the distance, overlooking the sea and revealing its orange roof, the magnificent palace of the Pharo.

Abbaye Saint Victor (Pass by)

This surprising building is the Abbey of Saint Victor, founded in the 5th century and visible from the Old Port.

Marseille (Pass by)

I take advantage of this moment when we walk in the Boulevard de la Corderie to talk to you about the culinary specialities of Marseille, which, you will see, are numerous!

Marseille (Pass by)

While we quietly return to the centre of Marseille, I offer you a small course on the famous Marseille expressions which, you know, are numerous and widely used here!

Cours Honoré d'Estienne d'Orves (Pass by)

Here you are, on a beautiful pedestrian square that was inaugurated in 1989. It was designed by urban planner Charlie Bové, but it is named after a leading figure in the Second World War

Opera Municipal de Marseille (Pass by)

Located in the 1st arrondissement, the Marseille Opera was built between 1786 and 1787 in the classical style.

Le Cours Julien (Pass by)

You enter the most colourful area of the city. The Ju course, as it is called here, does not present historical monuments, or pretty views of the city...

The Palace of Arts (Pass by)

Created by architect Henri Espérandieu, who also designed the Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde Basilica, the Palais des Arts now hosts concerts and exhibitions, after having hosted the municipal library and the École des Beaux-Arts for a long time.

Rue du Marché des Capucins (Pass by)

As the centre of the Noailles district, the Capuchin Point of Sale Square hosts, as its name suggests, a Producers’ Point of Sale where some twenty exhibitors display their fruit and vegetables at unbeatable Awards.

La Canebiere (Pass by)

Everyone knows La Canebière, or at least has heard that name before when talking about Marseille. But do you know the history of this famous avenue?
