Experience the best of
Marseille with Withlocals

"Iseult was more than incredible. Greta knowledge, personable and went out of her way to make our family's day perfect. She even went to some local cheese shops the day before to get us her favorites because they would be closed the day we were in town. Can't recommend her more highly!!"

"Naguib was very knowledgeable about the history of the city and gave us a new found appreciation for it. He was very friendly and open to curating the experience around our interests. "

"Our family just finished the best day with Anthony. Not only is he sweet, pleasant to be with and very intelligent, he is a wonderful teacher. All 5 of us (ages 18-77) found him interesting and very personable. Although i had never thought about Marseilles - it was a stop along the cruise, I can't wait to plan another trip here to explore this wonderful city more (and spend some more time with Anthony). "

"Iseult is an expert guide who provided the perfect balance of sights, information, variety, history, walking pace, recommendations and friendliness possible in the space of a 3 hour walking tour. We loved Marseille."

"Christopher led us on an afternoon tour of art and architecture in Marseille. We had some ideas of what type of places we wanted to visit and Christopher guided us to them explaining other buildings and neighborhoods in Marseille as we walked by them. \n\nWe were interested in the current art scene. Christopher having a studio in the city and being familiar with the current art scene gave us an insider’s view. We visited several galleries and Le Couvent - a community garden and artist residency development in a former convent and then to the nearby La Friche Belle de Mai. It is a former tobacco factory that has been converted into a contemporary art space. \n\nChristopher was an engaging guide taking us to the sites we were interested in. Along the way, we ran into several of his artist friends and colleagues who complimented his work. It was rich tour that brought the current art scene to life."

"Christopher gave us a very thorough tour. We walked thru the forts in the Catalan and he explained their history and use. We also visited the mansion that Napoleon III built for his wife, but she did not want to use. We also toured other spots in the Catalan.\n\nWe toured the Old Port area and Christopher discussed the history of the port including its ancient history, as well as more recent history and the various attempts at urban renewal. He discussed notable buildings and churches.\n\nWe finished up our tour in the Pannier district and the Cathedral. He brought us to several ceramic galleries that we wanted to visit as well as a couple of art galleries that we enjoyed. He had booked us a reservation at a wonderful vegetarian restaurant for lunch.\n\nHe is an enthusiastic guide who is happy to share his knowledge and tailor the tour to our interests. It was a superb tour.\n"

"We started in Cours Julien and ended in Fort Saint-Jean. Christophe showed us many points of interest from the spot voted “coolest place on the planet” by Instagram users to the ancient fort on the harbour via an art installation on a deconsecrated church and a fence festooned with the bras of Cheeto g spouses. Highly recommended!"

"Iseult provided exceptional service, and both our guest on the tour thoroughly enjoyed their time. \n\nWe couldn’t have asked for a better guide to show them around this beautiful city. Highly recommend her for anyone wanting to explore Marseille to the fullest! 🙌\n\nThank you Iseult"

"One of our most favorite things, upon coming to a new city or place, is immersing ourselves and getting to know locals in the area.\n\nAnthony did not disappoint! He took us to many of the local hot spots, taught us so much about Marseille, and even more so... informed us about the culture and diversity. It was an experience we won't forget.\n\nThis is a tour and experience to be recommended for sure! One we not ever forget. Thank you, Anthony for such an amazing time exploring your city!"

"what an amazing day with Naguib. It’s always great to have someone to show you around who loves his city. Naguib was a very informative guide who showed me most of the historic places and hidden gems of Marseille. I’m sure I would’ve needed another day to see all of the sites. I never felt rushed and any questions I had Naguib answered in a very knowledgeable way. Again, I highly recommend my."
