Comfortable stroll through the city
"I can not say enough how much we adored Christopher. He was a breath of fresh air. If you are looking for someone who you can chat about architecture, poetry and art he is it. Loved seeing all the different parts of town and the history. You will enjoy every minute with him and will not be disappointed. "
"Anthony was terrific! He really loves and breathes Marseille and it shows in his very enthusiastic yet HIGHLY detailed tour. Facts and figures of Marseille’s long history are at his fingertips but it was amazingly engaging and fun and not just information. He knows and loves this city and exudes his pride and passion at every turn of the corner. I highly recommend Anthony and I’m a tough critic from New York!"
"Anthony was a wonderful tour guide for my group of 20. We were on our Christmas away day from London. Anthony took us through the streets of Cours Julien while telling us all about the street art and the origins and meanings behind them. We learned all things political, cultural and historical. Anthony then took us back down to the Vieux Port and around towards the museum. It was a fantastic experience. I recommend!"

Slow walking Marseille
"I am traveling with my 80 year old mom who is recovering from a broken pelvis and can not walk very fast or far. I let Anthony know about this ahead of time and he did an excellent job of coordinating our tour to cater to my mother’s needs. He is extremely knowledgeable and easy to get along with. Anthony will make sure you have an excellent experience. "
