Marseille Shore Excursion: City Sightseeing Tour of Marseille Discount Tickets

Overview

Discover the highlights of Marseille on this half-day guided tour. Begin with a visit to the Old Port and the historic city center, where Marseille’s rich past meets its vibrant present. Continue to the majestic Palais Longchamp, inaugurated in 1869 to celebrate the arrival of water from the Durance River. Its impressive architecture and lush gardens make it a must-see landmark. Next, ascend to the iconic Basilica of Notre-Dame de la Garde—affectionately known as La Bonne Mère. Built in 1864 in a striking Roman-Byzantine style, the basilica offers panoramic views over the city and coastline from its hilltop perch. End your tour with a scenic stop overlooking the legendary Château d’If, made famous by The Count of Monte Cristo, before returning to your cruise terminal or accommodation. Important Information: This tour is available for both small and large groups (1 to 40 people).

Meeting and Pickup

Pickup Information

Your tour departs from Association Marseillaise d'Accueil de Marins (AMAM)( Seaman's Club), located in front of the police station outside of the cruise ship pier. The walk to the meeting point takes approximately 5 to 7-minutes, depending on where your ship is docked. Upon disembarking, please follow the green line on the floor leading to the exit. Once outside, continue walking until you see a small gray building on the left. Your local representative, holding a Domitia Tours sign, will be waiting for you there. We kindly ask all guests to arrive at the designated departure location at least 15 minutes before the scheduled departure time. Please note : In case your ship docks at Esplanade J4, we will meet the group directly at the pier — there is no need to take a taxi, bus or a cab. Please note that Domitia Tours will not be responsible for any extra expenses if transportation is arranged independently.
