Discover the highlights of southern France on a full-day excursion from Marseille, exploring the coastal beauty of Cassis and the Calanques alongside the elegant streets and historic charm of Aix-en-Provence.
The day begins in Marseille, where you’ll meet your friendly guide at 9:00 am before setting off along a spectacular coastal route. Enjoy a photo stop at Cape Canaille, the highest maritime cliff in Europe, offering breathtaking panoramic views over the Mediterranean.
Upon arrival in Cassis, you’ll explore the charming old fishing port with its colourful boats. Free time allows you to enjoy lunch (not included), relax by the sea, or go for a swim. You may also choose to join an optional 1-hour boat cruise to discover the famous Calanques—dramatic limestone cliffs plunging into crystal-clear waters to form stunning natural coves (cruise ticket not included).
The journey continues to Aix-en-Provence, where you’ll stroll along the elegant Cours Mirabeau, lined with fountains and historic 17th- and 18th-century mansions. Enjoy free time to explore the city’s refined atmosphere before returning to Marseille in the afternoon.
