About this tour

Embark on a journey to discover the distinctive flavors of Marseille, from the local favorite snack to the iconic aperitif: pastis!

Your adventure begins in Le Panier, the oldest district of Marseille, where you’ll relax in the shade while savoring a variety of traditional treats.

Your guide will take you through the rich history of the district, highlighting its ancient monuments, the MUCEM, the recently renovated shopping galleries, and a stroll around Fort St. Jean. You’ll also explore the stunning arcades of the Vieille Charité. The highlight of your walk will be a wine tasting in a charming garden, hosted by a local resident, offering a taste of authentic Marseille.

On Rue Caisserie, you’ll find a selection of delectable dishes, from madeleines to pastries and local restaurants, ready to delight your taste buds.

Along the way, you’ll experience the welcoming warmth of the locals and learn about the city’s designation as European Capital of Culture in 2013. The sea breeze (or Mistral, as we call it) will accompany you, and from a beautiful vantage point, you’ll enjoy views of the Palais du Pharo, a majestic building commissioned by Napoleon III for Empress Eugénie.
