City Breaks to Marseille

Marseille, located in the South of France. On a backdrop of rolling hills, chalk cliffs and the Mediterranean Sea. The city of Marseille is France’s second biggest, it is also the countries oldest city and the birth place of their national anthem. Marseille is also the gateway to Africa! A great vibrant city with a wonderful blend of cultures and activities. Enjoying a climate of hot sunny temperatures most of the year-round. Marseille is an ideal last minute holiday destination with plenty to do.

Marseille is a great host to the music and fashion industries. This youthful city is now only 3 hours away from Paris and 6 hours away from London on the Euro star. Whilst on holiday in Marseille be sure to visit top attractions like the Mediterranean Archaeological Museum, the Museum of African, Oceanic and Native American Art and the 19th century Notre Dame de la Garde. The Chateau d’If is also a great day out, once a former chateau, built to protect the city from invasion, later became a prison that held Monte-Cristou!

The Old port is one of the best places to be. This has always been the hub of the city and is now home to many bars and restaurants. The fish market is also located here! Be sure to try bouillabaisse – a fish dish that flavoured by saffron and garlic! Le Miramar is one of Marseilles top restaurants. The nightlife is great whilst on holiday in Marseille – claiming to have something to suit everybody. Plenty of nightclubs, rock concerts, jazz concerts, ballets, operas and other theatrical events.
