Immerse yourself in the cosmopolitan culture of Marseille with a walking food tour through the lively streets of the Notre Dame du Mont neighbourhood. This culinary journey will take you to at least four local eateries, where you'll sample some of the town's finest delicacies.
Your gastronomic adventure begins at one of Marseille's top ice cream shops, where an extensive selection of flavours awaits. Be prepared for some truly distinctive tastes. However, if your visit falls in winter, you'll be treated to a scrumptious crêpe instead.
Next, settle down in a charming bistrot for an 'Apéro'. Here, you'll have the opportunity to savour local octopus or a selection of fine charcuterie, all accompanied by a glass of quality wine. The city's love for tapas is evident, and there's no better way to sample a variety of specialities in manageable sizes. Depending on the season, you might find octopus, goat cheese, aubergine caviar and many more on your plate.
Finally, given that Marseille boasts one of the oldest ports in the Mediterranean, it would be remiss not to try their typical sardines, known as "joels". For those less keen on fish, the delectable panisses are a must-try. This tour promises a delightful exploration of Marseille's culinary scene.
