Marseille, France

Between maritime traditions and Mediterranean vibrancy, Marseille charms visitors with its raw authenticity, sunny flavours and diverse landscapes. Upon arriving at the port, cruise passengers are immediately immersed in a lively city, lulled by the song of cicadas, sea spray and the melodious accent of its inhabitants. 

The beating heart of the city is the Old Port, where colourful boats, fish markets and lively terraces create a living postcard. Not far away, the majestic Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde basilica, perched on its hill, watches over the city and offers a breathtaking panoramic view of the harbour and the Frioul islands.
