الوصف
Join a small group (max 10) boat tour of the Old Port. See the Mucem and forts from the water as your skipper shares Marseille’s history and legends.
Rediscover the beating heart of Marseille from its original viewpoint: the sea.
Board a comfortable semi-rigid boat (limited to 10 passengers) for an intimate and immersive tour of the Old Port. Far from the crowded tourist shuttles, this small-group experience allows you to navigate smoothly while your skipper shares the fascinating history of the Phocaean City.
A Journey Through Time & Architecture As you glide through the water, you will admire a striking contrast between tradition and modernity. See the Mucem and its famous concrete lace façade designed by Rudy Ricciotti, standing next to the 17th-century Fort Saint-Jean. You will sail past the Palais du Pharo, a magnificent structure built by Napoleon III for his wife Eugénie , and protectively watched over by Notre-Dame de la Garde, the city's iconic "Bonne Mère".
Local Legends & Hidden Stories Your skipper won't just point at buildings; they will bring them to life. Learn the hilarious truth behind the legend of the Sardine that blocked the port—a story involving a ship actually named "La Sartine" in 1779. Discover the origins of the Théâtre de la Criée, formerly a fish auction hall , and spot the traditional wooden boats known as "Pointus", the symbol of Provençal maritime heritage.
Highlights of the tour:
- Exclusive Viewpoints: Get the best photo angles of the Fort Saint-Nicolas and the Hôtel de Ville (City Hall).
- Small Group Atmosphere: With a maximum of 10 guests, enjoy a friendly, personalized exchange with your captain.
- Culture & Fun: A mix of historical facts—like the Greek roots of the city —and lighthearted local anecdotes.
Whether you are a history buff or simply looking to enjoy the sea breeze, this boat tour offers a unique perspective on Marseille’s heritage.
