1.Mucem Skip-the-Line Entry Ticket

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 619 reviews · from $13Our pick

Skip-the-line entry to Mucem in Marseille for Mediterranean-focused exhibits, standout architecture, and optional audio guide, in about one day.

“Die Weitläufigkeit, Verbindung mit der Burg und dann kurz rüber nach Le Panier - nice - auch der Blick auf die Cathedrale de la Major - wunderbar. Berauschender Blick natürlich auch auf Notre Dame de la Garde 🤩 Einziges Minus: ich mag die französischen Snacks in den Cafés nicht. Nix einfaches, alles kompliziert zubereitet mit ungewöhnlichen Zutaten, oder eben Kuchen. Wo gibts ein einfaches Schinken-Käse Baguette für zwischendurch?”

“I saw this trip as I was booking a holiday to Aix-en-Provence and felt this would be a wonderful way seeing some of this an and countryside of Southern France. We did this tour on Easter Monday with Jenny and it lived up to the hype. As it turned out, it became a private tour since my group was the only one on the trip. The visit to Arles, Avignon, Les Baux-en-Provence and the monastery provided rich insight into Van Gogh’s trip through France and his inspiration for Starey Night. Jenny did an excellent job as our tour guide, pointing out key sights with great stories along the way. She…”
