A walk you'll remember! It takes 2 hours and 15 minutes, but of course that doesn't include shopping stops at the various stores or well-deserved snack breaks! It is a stroll that will make you discover the most beautiful places to visit in Marseille, the must-see places, while giving you a breathtaking view! A nice city hike to do, equipped with good shoes to avoid sore feet. We obviously advise to do this walk with people who like to walk so avoid bringing children too young for such a long stroll! For families with children, it is better to take the Petit Train de Marseille at the Old Port, which will take you on a guided tour to Notre Dame de la Garde.
Remarkable places :
- Old Port
- Vallon Des Auffes
- Parc Borély
- Velodrome Stadium
- Notre Dame de La Garde
