Overview

Explore some of the top attractions in Marseille. Immerse yourself in the local culture and wander the picturesque streets of the old town, uncovering some of the great highlights of the heart of the bustling city.

Discover the city's hidden gems guided by a knowledgeabale local expert and glide past the city's iconic landmarks such as the visit of the Pharo Palace, enjoying the stunning panoramic views over the Old Port and its perspective on Frioul Islands and the Château d'If fortress,- a world-known national monument; the Catalans,- famous townsfolk beach.

    Malmousque Marseille

    Located in the heart of Marseille's city centre, Malmousque is a village in the 7th arrondissement that contains many treasures from the former days of Marseille. We like to get lost in the maze of its alleys with names as evocative as the "Traverse de la Fausse Monnaie", or the "Rue va à la Calanque". These are all small and tortuous and all seem to lead in one way or another to a small cove or small fishing port. The district is so quiet that it has its French Foreign Legion rest center. As well as the Bains Militaires, a seaside complex reserved for the military and their families. Throughout the Malmousque coast, there is plenty of hidden treasures.
