The tour with Medhi was wonderful. Early morning and a great pace. Small group and he even was able to go back and forth between French and English dual language depending on the guests. He was very kind and helpful also in terms of information and answering questions about the city. Such a knowledge passionate guide and it was easy to move around with public transportation within the city of Marseille. Highly recommend this tour!
Medhi was knowledgeable, pleasant, easygoing and efficient. His chosen itinerary gave us a good impression of Marseille, it’s monuments and history- as well as including practical informations about shopping, restaurants and public transportation (we moved around by bus and tram). Highly recommended and very good value!
Mehdi was laid-back and personable. He tailored the visit to the group that was present, and was happy to answer all our questions. Using the public transit system was a great way to get to know the city on a local level.
Mehdi did a wonderful job of bringing us on foot, by bus, and by tram, to some of Marseille's most iconic sites, and explaining the history behind them.
Everything about the tour was excellent. We were coming from the cruise port, and the meeting point was a short taxi ride to the town center. Medhi was very patient with us while taking pictures and answering all our questions. I like that he explained and told us the history of each site we visited. We enjoyed our tour, and the experience surpassed our expectations. I also enjoyed riding the public transportation in Marseille, which added to the authenticity of the whole experience. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Marseille for the first time.
Medhi is a life long resident who has a lot knowledge to share about his city. He was extremely flexible and helpful before and our tour.

We had a great experience with Medhi. He was at the meeting place on time and happily greeted us. He maneuvered us around Marseille to the sites we wanted to see using public transportation which was exciting. He was very knowledgeable and happy to answer questions.
Medhi a very kind person, super helpful, very knowledgeable and passionate about his work. We highly recommend this experience. Medhi in addition to giving us a beautiful and authentic tour of the city also recommended restaurants and beaches to visit frequented by the Marseilles.
