Greetings from Marseille! One of the best features of my tours is the fact that I provide a driver (except for the 2-hour walking tour), a great advantage because time isn't spent looking for parking. We'll be dropped off and picked up as close to the points of interest as possible. The driver concentrates 100% on driving while I give the tour and answer your questions. Although I've lived in France for 38 years, I'm American, so you should have no difficulty understanding my English. Whether it's cultural and historic sites or simply shopping, I'll take you there! My name is Kathy. I grew up in Washington St. , spent many years in Santa Barbara and New York City and arrived in France in 1986. After having lived 20 years in Paris, I finally discovered Marseille, fell in love with the city and have been happy here ever since. I'm looking forward to touring Provence with you! Certificate, Technicienne d'accueil touristique option accompagnement, tour leader, in English. Internship at the tourist information office in Marseille.

Overview of your Marseille tour

Aix-en-Provence Highlights - 4 hours Aix, as in, X marks the spot! City of fountains and art, fancy people and students from all over the world, all facets of this Provençal gem. We'll pick you up at your ship or hotel in Marseille and drive strait to Aix-en-Provence (about 30 minutes from Marseille) to get a look at its lively morning markets. We'll take a walking tour of the old town with its beautiful buildings and visit St. Sauveur Cathedral. If you are a Cezanne fan, I'll be happy to show you one of his favorite places to paint Mont Saint Victoire. Just let me know!

Kathy was wonderful and her driver very experienced and alternate routes and times too avoid traffic. We only had 6 hours in Marsielle and Aix was a perfect destination! Would highly recommend
