Marseille is an ancient sea city on the Mediterranean coast, founded by the Greeks in the VI century BC. Its uniqueness in the mix of port history, Mediterranean climate and vibrant local culture: noisy markets, narrow streets of old quarters and sunny embankments create a unique atmosphere where the past coexists with modernity.
In the city there are many man-made attractions that are worth seeing: The old port with its lively promenade and market bustle, the majestic Cathedral of St. Mary Major and Notre Dame de la Gard with panoramic viewing platforms, Fort Saint-Jean at the entrance to the harbor, the Faro Palace and the Loncham Palace as examples of urban architecture, as well as the modern CMA CGM tower and the famous Velodrome Stadium. Don’t forget about If Castle and its fortress buildings, ancient monuments and sculptures, including local copies of famous statues that reflect the rich history of the city.
Natural attractions around Marseille are not inferior to man-made masterpieces: the famous Marseille coves-calanques with narrow rocky bays and clear waters resemble the Mediterranean fjords, the islands of the Frioul archipelago and quiet beaches, green alleys and flowering lawns of Boreli Park, picturesque promenades and sea walks along the coast. These places are ideal for hiking, swimming and souvenir photos.
On our site you can see all these objects on an interactive map, read briefly about the history and features of each point and quickly build a route to the selected attractions. Convenient filters will help to mark places of interest, estimate distances and time for a walk, as well as make a daily inspection plan taking into account your preferences.
You can explore Marseille on your own, walking through the streets and sets of embankments, or book excursions with local guides who conduct themed walks, sea trips to Kalankas and a deep dive into urban legends. An experienced guide will tell little-known stories, show hidden views and help you see the city in a new light – this is a great way to get the most impressions in a short time.
Come to Marseille to breathe in the sea air, discover the bright corners of history and nature and make your own route to the sights. Let each walk turn into a small trip, and the city will leave in memory warm memories and the desire to return again.
