Or you can get off at all the stops and spend hours exploring Marseille on foot before getting back on the bus to visit another place.
You decide which sites to visit, which stops to get off at, and even when to start and finish your tour. You can see it all on our itineraries or just see the best that Marseille has to offer.
Children under 3 years of age travel free of charge and are invited to sit on the lap of their parents.
A child fare of €8 applies to children aged 4 to 13 inclusive.

From the cruise port, to get on our tourist buses, you have 2 solutions:
From Saint-Charles station, to get to the Vieux-Port, you have to take the Marseille metro (Line 1) and stop at the “Vieux-Port / Hôtel de Ville” station.
When you get out of the metro, walk 5-10 minutes in the direction of the Hôtel de Ville to get to our departure bridge at 86 Quai du Port.
No. Our buses cannot pick up passengers directly from the cruise port. You must come to our departure point or to one of our stops by your own means.
From Friday 8 July to Sunday 28 August 2022, as part of “L’Été Marseillais”, the city of Marseille will be pedestrianising part of the Vieux-Port and more specifically the Quai du Port, every day from 10am.
The departure point of our buses is therefore moved to the Quai des Belges, at the bottom of the Canebière on the Vieux-Port.
As our Red Line tour is not complete due to the pedestrianisation of the Old Port, we have reduced the price for an adult to 17€ instead of 19€.
Due to the pedestrianisation of the Quai du Port, our routes are slightly modified.
On our Red Line, stops 11, 12, 13 and 14 will not be served.
On our Blue Line, our stop 11 will not be served.
