Marseille, Heading South

The city of Marseille has undergone significant changes in the last twenty years. A new urban landscape with modern city planning. A new status with innovative restaurants that consciously preserve culinary tradition. Let’s head to Marseille! Since 2001, Marseille has been connected to the French TGV network, in 2013 it was named the European Capital of Culture, home to the MuCEM (Museum of European and Mediterranean Civilisations), the Calanques National Park… And since March, MPG2019, the Year of Gastronomy, has been celebrated in Provence. Within twenty years, Marseille has become a trendy city, as evidenced by its increasing number of visitors. This sunny city is an ideal destination for a city break, a delightful way to combine culinary experiences with exploratory walks. When visiting Marseille, you cannot miss the classics. The Old Port is one of them, a charming basin with small shipyards that perfectly complement the lively atmosphere on the quays. There is also a classic for the aperitif: Pastis. At the House of Pastis on Quai du Port, you can try out 75 different varieties! This spirit with its typical aniseed flavour is the basis for gatherings with friends and brings people together.
