The walking tour will start in the emblematic Vieux Port of Marseille, with a visit to the fish market then we will show you different architectural treasures on the way to Noailles, which is the next step of group tours.
This is the most popular and cosmopolitan district of the city, a real melting pot of cultures and languages from all over the world. Its lively and colourful market offers food for every taste: From the favourite snacks like the traditional Panisse to the mandatory aperitif, the famous pastis! These group tours will also be an opportunity for you to try the best specialities from countries around the Mediterranean: Greek, Arab, Italian, Lebanese and French food with of course the well-known olive oil! The overflowing stalls of food and spices and the many street-food stands will excite your sense of smell and taste. You will be entranced by the cosmopolitan atmosphere, the myriad of languages that you will hear as you leisurely stroll along the vibrant streets.
Then group tours will take you to the oldest district in France: Le Panier, a place full of mysterious treasures, street art and artisanal food shops in narrow pedestrian streets. Your guide will introduce you to a multitude of fascinating sites found in almost every street where artisanal workshops and local products intermingle for the enjoyment of visitors and residents alike! You will taste the famous Marseille aperitif “the Pastis”. A craftsman will explain to you the different stages of its production.
The tour will end with a tasting of the best Provençal wines of the area.
Bon appétit!
