About this activity

Your exciting half day shore excursion to Marseille city begins with a morning pickup from your cruise terminal. Meet your guide and board a minivan or a taxi to get to your starting point near the sea.

You will stop many times to discuss the unique history of Marseille as you gaze at the breathtaking scenery.
