    Fantastic day!

    Anthony was a wonderful tour guide! We were on a cruise ship traveling with 3 young kids (ages 4, 6 and 8) and he was so fun and patient with us! Great communication- texting me in advance about start/stop times and he was early to pick us up right as we stepped off the ship. He provided booster seats for my kids and had a very clean van. He had umbrellas for us which were appreciated with the torrential rain and changed up the order of the stops to ensure we made it to the viewpoints before it started to rain. We appreciated his friendly nature and all the history he provided. As a native, he shared so many fun facts with us! Highly, highly recommended him and I’ve already sent his info to multiple other friends planning a trip to Marseilles in the future. We will contact Anthony the next time we are in marseille as he has multiple other tours within the region!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much Julie!! I can't hide it, I love children !! I had a wonderful day with your beautiful family... My only regret is that darn rain.. I hope to see you again one day in Provence under a beautiful sun to show you all the beautiful things my region has to offer. Once again, a big thank you to you and Mike for your kindness. Anthony

    Great Day!

    Anthony was great. He adapted to what we wanted to see and directed us to a great lunch place in Cassis on the beach. We had a great day exploring all of the attractions.

    Response from the operator: Thank you very much Kari! I'm really glad you enjoyed the day. I hope to see you again someday in Provence :) Anthony

    Outstanding private tour

    This private tour by Anthony was one of the highlights of our Western Medierranean cruise! He picked us up promptly in front of our ship, and we toured a few of the main sites in Marseille, including the old port and the Basilica of Notre Dame de la Garde. Then we traveled through the beautiful Parc National des Calanques to Cape Canaille, the highest cliff in Europe, where we had incredible views of nearby rock climbers, Cassis Bay, and the Mediterranean Sea. After traveling down to the fishing town of Cassis, we took an hour boat tour to view the cliffs, beaches, and tourquoise water. Anthony suggested a wonderful restaurant alongside the harbor where we had a local seafood lunch, followed by plenty of time to explore the town, shop, and stop for gelato before meeting Anthony for a quick ride back to the ship. The private tour was absolutey perfect! Anthony was friendly, professional, and prompt...AND he made sure we were back to the ship on time! Don't hesitate to book this experience...You'll enjoy every minute!

    Amazing tour, highly recommend!

    This was our favorite excursion on our Mediterranean cruise. We were met and dropped off at our ship, and we were very comfortable for the tour. Anthony provided a great experience, we felt like we were visiting a friend, who was showing us the best of what the area had to offer. I cannot recommend this tour enough!!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for this great review Lorna!! I also had an excellent day with you... I hope to see you again one day in Provence... Best, Anthony

    Cassis, the beautifull Calanques & Marseille hightlights: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Aix-en-Provence.

    How much does Cassis, the beautifull Calanques & Marseille hightlights cost?

    +

    Prices start at $1,062 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Aix-en-Provence usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Cassis, the beautifull Calanques & Marseille hightlights take?

    +

    Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Aix-en-Provence is not rushed.

    Is Cassis, the beautifull Calanques & Marseille hightlights worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 11 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Aix-en-Provence, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Cassis, the beautifull Calanques & Marseille hightlights?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Cassis, the beautifull Calanques & Marseille hightlights suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Cassis, the beautifull Calanques & Marseille hightlights?

    +

    Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Aix-en-Provence can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Aix-en-Provence and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Cassis, the beautifull Calanques & Marseille hightlights start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Aix-en-Provence within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Aix-en-Provence?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Aix-en-Provence experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Luberon Villages Half-Day Tour from Aix-en-Provence, An Aix-traordinary Walking City Tour of Aix-en-Provence, Cotes de Provence Wine Tour from Aix-en-Provence. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Aix-en-Provence?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Aix-en-Provence?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
