Description

This Segway tour is the most original way to discover Marseilles and all the unmissable places in the Vieux Panier neighbourhood in just 1 hour!

Your instructor will lead you on a circuit that includes all the must-see sights of Marseilles.

Begin your 1-hour guided tour with the Sainte-Marie-Majeure Cathedral, the Vieille Charité, Rue de la République, the Paroisse Saint-Cannat and the Saint-Ferréol church, as well as the historic high street La Cannebière.

Next, you'll make your way to the Panier neighbourhood to explore the oldest district of the Mediterranean city, listening to informative commentary provided by your instructor.
