Marseille: Aix-en-Provence Private Tour｜France

Begin your journey along Cours Mirabeau, a plane-tree boulevard lined with terraces and historic fountains. It’s the perfect first look at Aix’s rhythm, with elegant façades, café life, and the easy Provençal glow.

From there, step into Vieil Aix, where narrow lanes open onto intimate squares around the town hall and clock tower. With the car close by, you can explore a few corners on foot and slip back into comfort whenever you like.

Next, pause at Cathédrale Saint-Sauveur, a layered cathedral where Roman, Gothic, and Baroque traces meet. The forecourt and interior chapels offer a calm, cool interlude before you drift south into Quartier Mazarin & Fontaine des Quatre Dauphins. Here, grand 17th-century mansions and the famed dolphin fountain set a refined scene, perfect for photos and a short wander.

If you’d like a Cézanne moment, include Atelier Cézanne, his hilltop studio where the still-life objects and the tall north window frame make his presence feel close. Prefer an open-air view? Swap in the nearby painters’ viewpoint for a classic line on Mont Sainte-Victoire.

Either way, the return drive takes you back through the countryside to your Marseille drop-off, with a chance to add a quick coffee stop if time allows.
