Marseille was founded in the 6th century BC by Greek settlers from Phocaea. Today, France's second largest city is a vibrant port boasting culture aplenty. Visit Longchamp Palace and its beautiful fountain and the Cathédrale de la Major. Take in views of craggy coves from the promenade and the infamous Château d’if, the former island prison made famous by Dumas’ The Count of Monte Cristo. End your adventure with a relaxing drink in the buzzing Le Vieux Port.
