Tips for Family

Best Views

Climb Notre-Dame de la Garde at sunset for the best views of the golden city. Also try the Palais du Pharo for views of the Old Port.

Avoid Crowds

Visit the Calanques early in the morning or at the end of the day. Summer weekends are very busy.

Multiculturalism

Respect the cultural diversity of Marseille. The city celebrates its Mediterranean, North African and Italian influences.

Mediterranean Schedules

The schedules are more relaxed than in Paris. Many shops close at noon and dinners start later.

Mediterranean Sun

Protect yourself from the intense sun, especially in the Calanques. Use sunscreen, a hat, and bring plenty of water.

Water and Food

Tap water is drinkable. In seafood restaurants, check for freshness, especially in summer.

General Security

Marseille is generally safe in tourist areas. Maintain normal precautions, avoid showing valuables and be careful in some peripheral areas at night.

Areas to Avoid

Some areas north of the city require more caution. Stay in central and tourist areas, especially at night.
