La Caravelle

Marseille, the vibrant and historic port city of France, offers a unique blend of culture, history, and Mediterranean charm. Nestled along the stunning French Riviera, this dynamic city is a melting pot of cultures, reflected in its cuisine, architecture, and way of life. With a rich maritime heritage, Marseille is not only France’s oldest city but also one of its most intriguing destinations. To help you make the most of your visit, I’ve crafted a detailed 3-day itinerary in Marseille to explore the very essence of Marseille.

I think I fell in love with Marseille in the early 90's and have not been the same since. Port cities all over the world have a grit that I just love, they are real and have a diversity of cultures and foods that other cities just do not have. Don't get me wrong these cities are not for everyone but if you like a bit of adventure you should fall in love like I did.
