This activity will end right where it started.
Your morning or afternoon tour of France’s oldest city departs from Marseille Vieux Port. Meet your local guide and get acquainted with the deluxe electric bike. Fit with a small motor and optional baby seats and trailers, this modern ride allows you and your family to cover a lot of ground with ease.

First, cruise to the Palais du Pharo (Napoleon's Palace), the 18th-century coastal mansion that stands like a sentinel on the entry to the Old Port. Admire the bustling waterway before heading inland to view Notre-Dame de la Garde, a neo-Byzantine Catholic basilica that rises from Marseille’s highest point, and the Abbey of Saint-Victor.

Continue toward Corniche du Président John F Kennedy (Corniche Kennedy) for a leisurely ride along the sun-kissed coastal boulevard. Along the way, pedal past scenes of French life such as locals playing pétanque—a favorite game of balls—and fishermen working in the village of Vallon des Auffes and the quaint cove Anse de Malmousque. Stop to snap great photos, get insider tips and learn fascinating anecdotes about Marseille’s long history from your savvy guide. You also have a chance to stop for some lunch or refreshments (own expense).

Upgrade your tour to include a trip through the ambient Le Panier neighborhood, the oldest quarter in Marseille. Coast through picturesque lanes and under terraced houses strung with clotheslines. Admire the striking façade of the Marseille Cathedral and the Museum of the Civilisations of Europe and the Mediterranean (MuCEM), a strikingly modern accent on Marseille’s ancient waterfront.

Your leisurely electric bike tour concludes at its starting point in Vieux Port.

We are sorry to hear this story. No show, no message from you before, no message from you after...just a refund request 5 hours after the end of the tour for "bad weather" reason. I checked port authorities, your vessel was on time. I think the real reason was the weather too cold for you. No refund, sorry.

A Beautiful Ride in Marseille!

Stefan was an amazing guide! We went down to the Vieux Port and biked along the coast to the Palais and Stefan told us all about the Napoleanic history behind a lot of the architecture. As we went further up the coast we learned about the unique history of Marseille and bouillabaisse and a lot about Marseille culture today. What a wonderful way to spend a morning when you’re just starting out in the city!

It was a great experience that my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed! Our tour guide (Manu) was prompt and also very helpful along the way. He provided us with some useful historical facts as well as a few recommendations for places we could visit and restaurants we needed to try out. If you’re looking for a great way to get around Marseille, stopping off at great places to take pictures whilst also doing a little exercise at the same time, then I’d highly recommend this!

Rickey_G

We did a bike tour in a few other places we have visited over the years, but this may be one of the best! I always think it is a great way to see any new city, especially when time is short. You are able to pack so much in and take both the small side streets and main roads along the way. To motorized bikes are quite zippy and made it easy to keep up and move easily up hills. We covered some great territories stopping frequently to take in main sites and some off-the-beaten-path spots only a local would know. We took in great views of the coast, the city center and harbor, and stopped at the big cathedral with wide sweeping views over the city too. All picture perfect spots. This makes me want to come back again. Our tour guide might have a different review. She got a flat tire which delayed us at the first stop while being fixed, but we had a great time meeting our group and taking photos of each other. It was time well spent and didn't bother any of us a bit! We also we got stuck by a delivery van in the parking lot of a 5 star resort with great coastal views...what a treat! She was great and we loved her perspective on the city. I highly recommend it!

Great guide! City .tour not for kids!
Deborah_C

Hey all....we booked a couple of trips through Viator and thoroughly enjoyed the 2nd one. We would have truly enjoyed this one as well, if it was only my husband and I. The City is not prepar ed for Cyclists so is definitely not for kids or anyone who is intimidated by motorists. We had our 13 year old with us and he was scared the entire time. The city has steep hills and the motorists are unyielding. Unfortunately the site implies that this trip is ok for kids. Its really not. I do wish that it had as another electric bike tour is available to and through the national park. It likely would have been more appropriate for my son. Our guide was SUPER and very kind!

Maureen A
, Oct 2017
The tour was meant to be four hours but we had people with us who only paid for three. We were offered the additional hour but only after we returned to the shop so the other two could return their bikes. Also, this turned into a multilingual tour and the people who did not speak much English monopolized the tour guides time and he seemed ok with that. The bikes were fine but the route is almost all in traffic and the guide was always very far ahead. He took us through some very narrow spots, I was uncomfortable for most of the ride. We are seasoned bike riders and have been on many bike tours, this one was not great

Great way to see a lot of the city and get your bearings. Don't take it if you are a history buff looking for detailed history lessons. The electric bike makes it possible to see a great deal in a limited time and without exerting yourself. Marc did an excellent job guides us through traffic and busy streets. Melanie, although in training, was superb as well.
