Join us and discover Marseille, an alluring French Mediterranean city with a vibrant history that dates as far back as 600 BC. From Greek Massalia to modern day metropolitan Marseille, our walking tours are meticulously researched and well balanced in a bid to intertwine all aspects of the city that contextualize and represent its identity today. As tour guides, we come from all walks of life but share a special interest in responsible tourism that presents a critical perspective. Coupled with a fervent passion for Marseille, we offer a strong narrative while making our tours both fun and engaging. So come along and let us take you across time. We hope to leave you as captivated as we are by a city that has so much to offer.
Marseille, the capital of Provence, is France’s oldest city. Always shifting between myth and reality, it is also without a doubt one of the most charming and historically fascinating cities in the country. However, stereotypes and reputation have made Marseille the underrated city it is today. With our Free Tour, we hope to break prejudices by approaching its impressive history in a pleasant, professional and, above all, exciting manner. The setting of the old Marseille will give us the perfect framework to introduce you to its history. From Julius Caesar to the Inquisition, the Marseillais mafia and World War II, we guarantee a two and a half hour journey across time that is essential to understand this charming but complex Mediterranean city.
You will find us with the maroon umbrella in front of the Marseille town hall (building with flags) on the seafront.
Free tours do not have a set price, instead, each person gives the guru at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (these usually range from €10 to $50 depending on satisfaction with the tour).
