Highly Disappointed Viator Patron
This is not a walking tour. It is not possible to cover all of the listed sites (on foot) in less than 6 hours. Moreover, I was quoted a cost of $500 but charged $720. I contacted the local guide a week in advance to inquire about the price differential - and while the guide confirmed the tour and meeting point- he ignored my pricing question. Luckily, we received a substitute guide (Claire) who was very knowledgeable. We booked a driver through the hotel (at our own cost) and covered the listed sites in three hours. The local tour guide owner never returned Claire's calls, my texts or calls. While Claire was extraordinary - this guide service is not.
Response from the operator: Hello Marcus, You must have asked Tripadvisor or Viator about your payment since you are not paying to our company directly. That is why we couldn't give you an answer. Maybe you did not consider the platform's commission... Also, you clearly booked a walking tour thus there is no driver included. We are very happy to know you had a nice tour with our guide. As a tour guide agency we take about providing experienced official guides.

Wonderful Way To Meet Marseille
My wife and I decided to visit Marseille after probably avoiding it which was a huge mistake. Our walking tour with Guy was incredible! Spending several hours in Le Panier discovering the oldest neighborhood in Marseille was amazing. Then a tour of the old port including a short ferry ride through the marina to a quaint local hotel for lunch simply made our day. More than 5 stars if possible.
Response from the operator: Hello Jeffrey, Thank you for your review. All the team is very happy to know you had a great tour with Guy as your guide. Kindest regards

Walking Tour of Dijon
Note: This was a walking tour of Dijon. Our Tour Guide, Romain, met us at our hotel and was there early. Romain guided us through the streets of Old Town, Dijon, explaining the fascinating history of the architecture and city. Romain was very flexible as to what we wanted to see. He had his route, and adjusted and added based on the interest of our group. Romain was a wealth of knowledge, not just about Dijon, but all of Burgundy, and France for that matter. Was a really good experience, highly recommend Romain.
Response from the operator: Hello Ron, Thank you for your review. All the team is very much pleased to know that you enjoyed your tour in Dijon with Romain. Kindest regards

Romain is excellent!
Romain was excellent. One of the best guides we’ve ever had. Extremely knowledgeable and didn’t waste time. We were able to see most of the important sites unless than 4 hours!!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your review. All the team is glad to know you enjoyed your tour with Romain. Kindest Regards.

Terrific tour guide
Terrific guide. Romain was very engaging and impressively knowledgeable about the history of France and the Burgundy region. He also provided a great foundational understanding of the Burgundy wine industry. Highly recommend this tour.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your review. All the team is very much pleased to know you enjoyed your experience with Romain. Kind Regards.

Marseille private walking tour with an official tour guide !: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Marseille.
How much does Marseille private walking tour with an official tour guide ! cost?
+
Prices start at $228 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Marseille usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Marseille private walking tour with an official tour guide ! take?
+
Plan for about 2 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 Marseille is not rushed.
Is Marseille private walking tour with an official tour guide ! worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 12 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Marseille, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Marseille private walking tour with an official tour guide !?
+
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 Marseille private walking tour with an official tour guide ! suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Marseille private walking tour with an official tour guide !?
+
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 Marseille 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 Marseille and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Marseille private walking tour with an official tour guide ! 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 Marseille 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 Marseille?
+
On Outty we rank every Marseille experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Beyond Bouillabaisse: Diving into Marseille’s Multicultural Stew, Marseille Guided Tour for 4 Hours with a Bilingual Local Guide, Marseille Food Tour – Full Meal of Local Tastes by Do Eat Better. 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 Marseille?
+
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 Marseille?
+
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.

+

+
It is offered in German, Portuguese, English, Italian, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
