Marseille

Marseille is a city full of life, but it can be a bit of an adventure—make sure to get some tips before you start exploring! It is known for its beautiful beaches and parks, but the city is not always tidy. The city center can be busy, with some areas looking dirty and feeling unsafe, especially at night. However, don't let that stop you! Marseille has its own identity that makes it different from other parts of France, with friendly older locals who like to share stories and advice. The younger people might seem more distant, but once you get used to the place, you'll find many affordable activities and good food. Be sure to visit “Les Calanques”—a lovely natural park. You can also take a boat to visit nearby towns. Don’t miss the local museums and beautiful churches. Public transportation is available, but be careful as it is not always dependable. Overall, embrace the busy atmosphere and you will find a city full of culture and experiences waiting for you!
