Price - Family rate = 18 Euros ($21 US) for two adults and 1-5 kids. 11 Euros ($13 US) for single adults or adults with NO kids. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success.

This is another must-see historical site to see when you are in Marseille. Unfortunately, due to…read morethe time constraints, we were not able to purchase a ticket and go up on top to walk across for a spectacular view of Marseille. Inside this contemporary museum, I understand it really shows off the beauty of European and Mediterranean culture. As astounding as all the displays are, one thing visitors should be aware of is the museum's photography policy. They have strict restrictions on photography, which they take very seriously, so adhere to the strict rule during your visit or risk losing your phone or camera. Very close to the waterfront and a great place to tour inside as well as the outside for stunning visuals. As for ticket prices, I cannot comment on those since my husband handled all of our reservations and admissions throughout the trip.

Lovely free museum with a vast amount of artefacts in Marseille's history from the ancient world…read moreuntil now. Since it's free, everything is in French but it's still cool to see some of the larger artefacts like a ship's hull and some of the bodies recovered there. There's a "ticket" office where someone can direct you to the entrance and they'll do a quick bag check. Only thing I'd recommend is having a donation box somewhere because it's always nice to donate for things like this that are educational.

Staff are rude. Nothing written in English so you don't know what you are looking at. While this…read moreis common in France, there is usually an audio guide in other languages to fill the gap. Not here. While there was no fee to enter, I cannot recommend. What's more, the entrance is through a shopping mall on the lower level, so even finding it is difficult! Their website has not been updated since 2018. Sloppy! Do have a look at Roman ruins just outside however.

Once u reach the top, very nice what more can be said really? the views are amazing, u can see the entire city from up there. As for the Basilica itself, it's very cool with plenty of mosaics designs & column's, inside the candles provide some light to the dimly lit interior. This was a great stop & for sure worth checking out, even if just for the outside views.

Note to self - Bring a bottle of wine and watch the sunset with the locals!…read more Quality/Quantity - The above is what the locals do. What a beautiful view. Too bad for my wife and I because the day we planned to do this, I booked last second reservations at Une Table au Sud, a Michelin Star restaurant; see my other Yelp review. Anyway, I hope my pictures do this place justice. Enjoy; better yet, go visit. Another plus was that we got our Marseille soap here which saved us a trip. 6 Euros for a pack of 4. We bought a few packs... BTW, this is the same price as if we went to the parent store. Ambiance - See my pictures. Pay toilets, I think 1 Euro. They accept credit cards. Restaurant available. Gift shop. Service - Self service. Price - Free, unless you need to use the toilets. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success and history.
