Marseille Shore Excursion: Full Day Tour of Marseille by Electric Bike

Highlights

  • When your cruise ship docks in Marseille, enjoy a shore excursion to see the best sights of the city. Meet your guide at the cruise terminal, then hop onto your electric bike and spin through the old port to begin your tour. First, head to the 19th-century Pharo Palace — built by Napoleon III — and listen as your guide brings the region’s history to life. Admire sweeping views from the hilltop location, then continue to the Vallon des Auffes and the Corniche Kennedy — pretty corners of coastal Marseille. Visit a local beach and perhaps take a dip in the sea, then stop for lunch (own expense) in a local restaurant or cafe. Afterward, take in top sites of interest including Notre Dame de la Garde — Marseille’s famous basilica — and the Panier district. Spin through the industrial Joliette district — now a thriving hub of arts and culture — then cycle back to your starting point in Marseille to conclude your tour.
