Our family just finished the best day with Anthony. Not only is he sweet, pleasant to be with and very intelligent, he is a wonderful teacher. All 5 of us (ages 18-77) found him interesting and very personable. Although i had never thought about Marseilles - it was a stop along the cruise, I can't wait to plan another trip here to explore this wonderful city more (and spend some more time with Anthony).

Exploring art / architecture in Marseille
Christopher led us on an afternoon tour of art and architecture in Marseille. We had some ideas of what type of places we wanted to visit and Christopher guided us to them explaining other buildings and neighborhoods in Marseille as we walked by them.
We were interested in the current art scene. Christopher having a studio in the city and being familiar with the current art scene gave us an insider’s view. We visited several galleries and Le Couvent - a community garden and artist residency development in a former convent and then to the nearby La Friche Belle de Mai. It is a former tobacco factory that has been converted into a contemporary art space.
Christopher was an engaging guide taking us to the sites we were interested in. Along the way, we ran into several of his artist friends and colleagues who complimented his work. It was rich tour that brought the current art scene to life.

About local
Christopher knows the City and history.
Christopher gave us a very thorough tour. We walked thru the forts in the Catalan and he explained their history and use. We also visited the mansion that Napoleon III built for his wife, but she did not want to use. We also toured other spots in the Catalan.
We toured the Old Port area and Christopher discussed the history of the port including its ancient history, as well as more recent history and the various attempts at urban renewal. He discussed notable buildings and churches.
We finished up our tour in the Pannier district and the Cathedral. He brought us to several ceramic galleries that we wanted to visit as well as a couple of art galleries that we enjoyed. He had booked us a reservation at a wonderful vegetarian restaurant for lunch.
He is an enthusiastic guide who is happy to share his knowledge and tailor the tour to our interests. It was a superb tour.
