Private Provence: Le Castellet, Cassis and Marseille

On this 8-hour private tour you will be picked up by your guide at the cruise port in Toulon for a memorable day amid beautiful Provencal towns. Your first stop will be in Le Castellet, a small feudal village that was once the setting for the film The Baker's Wife. Wander along the charming cobblestone streets and rub elbows with the locals. From there you will visit Cassis, a sleepy fishing port full of pastel-colored buildings, sidewalk cafes and overflowing vineyards. Take some time to explore the beach or the waterways by boat if you wish (for an additional fee). At Cassis National Park your guide will take you to Cape Canaille, Europe's highest sea cliff, for spectacular views of the park and the bay. Savor some seafood at a port side restaurant (additional cost) before continuing on to the ancient city of Marseille. Once in the city you will ascend the iconic Notre Dame de la Garde. Located on the highest point in Marseille, this 19th century basilica is a popular spot to take photos thanks to the panoramic overviews at every turn. Reserve your spot now not to miss out and get ready to see the real Provence. Please Note: Vehicles available for this tour accommodate groups of up to 8, 22, or 40 passengers maximum.
