The Original Marseilles Backstreets Tour
Overview
From the port to the backstreets we make a full circle.
Along the way we see the Opera House the Police Building and many landmarks as we travel to the daily marketplace to tast the world of Marseilles.
It's an astonishing place bringing together an eclectic mix of people from across the world. Marseilles is NOT France, it is Italy, Greece, Egypt, Turkey and Colombia as all the cultures meld and influence the tastes of the city.
Simply one of the best places to eat in the world
Discover the secrets of this fascinating city as you walk the ancient streets in a city that began in 600 B.C.
