Overview
Discover Marseille, France’s oldest city and the vibrant gateway to the Mediterranean with Walkative guides. From its Greek beginnings over 2,600 years ago to its role as France’s great colonial port, Marseille has always been a crossroads of cultures, full of history and energy.
Our walk begins at Place du Général-de-Gaulle by the Old Port, the city’s beating heart for centuries. We’ll explore the Jardin des Vestiges archeological site, pause at the historic Hôtel de Cabre and Hôtel Dieu, then wander through the charming lanes of Le Panier, Marseille’s oldest neighborhood. Along the way, we’ll see the grand Cathédrale La Major, modern landmarks like MUCEM and the Villa Méditerranée, and finish at Fort Saint-Jean, with its sweeping views of the harbor.
Join us to experience Marseille’s past and present, from ancient ruins to modern icons, all in one unforgettable walk.
