Marseille

Marseille, located in southeastern France, is a vibrant and bustling city nestled in the heart of sublime nature. Rich in exceptional cultural and historical heritage, it is also resolutely forward-looking, constantly reinventing itself.

In this edition, we invite you to discover or rediscover it through the eyes of fascinating local personalities who share their infectious love for their region and its unique atmosphere. After visiting its city center, strolling through the narrow streets of Le Panier, and discovering the sublime Mucem (Musée d'Etudes Musees), you can explore its rocks and secret little harbors, its sandy or pebble beaches, and lose yourself in the Calanques National Park. By renting a car or taking the shuttle, you can even explore the charming port of Cassis, which will charm you with its calm and gentle way of life.
