Hi, I’m Benjamin! For me, Marseille is all about contrasts - the buzz of lively neighborhoods where people spill into the streets to chat and share food, and the calm of Provence’s nature just beyond the city. I love wandering through the streets, always on the lookout for new shops, restaurants, or hidden corners, because Marseille never stands still - it’s constantly changing. And when I need a break from the city, I head for a hike or simply relax in one of its many parks. With a passion for the city’s history and architecture, and an unstoppable love for its breathtaking landscapes, I enjoy showing visitors how Marseille blends vibrant energy with timeless beauty.
