Bus to and from Marseille

Marseille, the second largest city in France, is known for its versatility. Visitors appreciate the mixture of a typically French as well as Mediterranean atmosphere, which characterizes the capital of the department of Bouches-du-Rhône. If you fancy an extensive shopping spree, then you should stroll along the Canebière. Should you want some relaxation, then the beaches at the Prado or a walk along the Old Port are highly recommended. Marseille was elected the European Capital of Culture in 2013 – and for good reason. Numerous museums including the famous Palais Longchamp are side by side. One of Marseille's most iconic and well-known landmarks is the basilica of Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde which is situated high above the Mediterranean metropolis. From there you can also spot the Chateau d'If, located on an island and setting to Alexandre Dumas' novel "The Count of Monte Christo". When you're on your Euro trip and you visit Marseille, then you should also get to know its culinary side. One of its highlights is the famous Bouillabaisse, a traditional soup made of regional types of fish. With some aïoli for starters and some pastis for aperitif this makes for the perfect French meal. For instance, you can enjoy it after seeing an Olympique Marseille soccer match at the Stade Vélodrome.

The French metropolis is neatly integrated into the European bus network and features bus routes operated by companies such as ALSA, Eurolines Germany, isilines, Movelia and OUIBUS. The most frequently served bus stop is Marseille Saint-Charles coach station, which can be found very close to the city center.
