  • Panier neighborhood

A stop at the oldest house in Marseille and the ancient hospital is a must before we have to climb some steps to get up to the oldest neighborhood in Marseille, called "Le Panier". The ascent is rewarded by an almost village-like tranquility that we can enjoy while crossing a lot of narrow streets. Another stop is the old Charité, where we can have a little break. In the Paniern you'll find typical shops for amazing local products. Somes of them invited for tasting.

In the immediate vicinity is the Saint John Fortress, which we can reach and admire over a small bridge. Another bridge then leads us to the roof of the new landmark: the MUCEM, the new museum with its amazing architecture!

  • Cathedral "La major"

After visiting the extraordinary architecture of the MUCEM and the Mediterranean Villa, the path leads us to the largest cathedral in France, which shines majestically in front of the sea.
