We were two couples in Marseille on Celebrity Constellation. Avignon had an enchanting atmosphere. You should visit the palace with a guide to understand better. It was extremely interesting and exciting. Olivier was a very knowledgeable guide especially about the history.
There are many shops in Aix to buy something local, It is also a pleasant place. Thanks

Superb tour with our guide Sylvie. Without her we could never understand the Popes palace. She was also very helpful to maximise our time in Aix.
Cheers

Our Mediterranean cruise ship docked in Marseille. We-3 couples- met our guide at the port. Romain was an extraordinary guide and this tour couldn’t have been better.
