Customize your tour ! you can choose between visiting Marseille or Aix-en-Provence on the day of the tour!
You are on vacation in French Riviera and you want to discover deep France! visit : LA PROVENCE! I suggest visiting two important cities. The first : Aix-en-Provence which is the capital of Provence ; Labeled city of art and history, due to its 156 historic site listed. The second : Cassis, a small fishing village, with its famous Callanques and blue waters, Cassis have the most famous white wine in France. Marseille is the second largest, and the oldest city in France ; "2600 years of history". With its old port, its churches, its restaurants, its emblematic food, its museum -LE MUCEM-... Marseille has everything to seduce you!
This is not a tour where you spend most of your time driving in traffic jams! It's not a chase like many other tours. I built the tour to avoid this problem, you'll have enough time to enjoy each spot, with instructions of a professional guide.
