Transport yourself to sun-kissed sands and Cote d’Azur blues…this old port city is one of southern France’s top destinations.
Often considered a little grittier than its French Riviera neighbours - Marseille’s once shabby streets are now lined with buzzy bars, vibrant street art, and incredible food spots.
The Panier neighbourhood is a car-free corner of the city, and a quite stunning place to explore on foot; while other highlights include the remarkable Longchamp Palace, the historic Chateau d'If - a fortress and former prison around 1.5km from the coast, and the iconic Notre-Dame de la Garde - a true symbol of this city.
There's so much which combines to make Marseille the perfect city break for culture and beach lovers alike.
