Mary Magdalene was close to Jesus and the Virgin Mary. Expelled from Palestine at the beginning of the 1st century, she arrived in Provence by sea in a small boat. She dedicated her life to carrying the voice of Jesus through Provence, then she retired to the cave of the Massif de la Sainte Baume, where she lived in Hermite the last 30 years of her life. Whether you are a Pilgrim, or simply fascinated by the incredible history of Saint Mary Magdalene, I suggest you live a journey into the past by discovering the cave. You will have time to pray or meditate, and if you wish, you will be able to attend the Mass which is held daily at 11am. You will climb alone, at your own pace. We will then go to the city of Saint Maximin la Sainte Baume, you can stroll through the alleys and have lunch there. Finally, you will have free time to visit the basilica where the relics of Mary Magdalene lie.

SCOTT_R, Oct 2026

Omar made our tour a treat!

This was a well designed private tour in a Mercedes taxi by Omar. He walked with us in Aix and treated us to the most delightful croissants. Even though it rained, we saw a lot and enjoyed his company. He rescued us in Cassis from a driving rain and saved us from being soaked. We would do it again!

Martin_H, Oct 2026

Fantastic Tour of Marseille.

Our guide Eva was fantastic! She provided great history and background of the many sights we saw on the tour. Our group of 6 were all experienced cyclists. Participants should be competent riding in traffic and on fairly steep climbs and descents. The bikes were great and had plenty of power on the climbs.

Libby_J, Oct 2026

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Absolutely Incredible Experience with Denis!

Our drive through Cassis and the Calanques with Denis was one of the highlights of our trip! From start to finish, everything was absolutely perfect. Denis was an exceptional guide and driver—friendly, knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely passionate about showing us the beauty of the area. Seeing the stunning coastline and Calanques from a convertible made the experience even more special. The scenery was breathtaking, and the open-air drive made us feel completely immersed in the beauty of Provence. Denis knew all the best spots and made the entire experience feel effortless and relaxed. He was also incredibly attentive to our group and made sure we had plenty of opportunities to stop, take photos, and enjoy the views. If you’re visiting the area, I cannot recommend Denis enough! The combination of his wonderful personality, excellent knowledge, and the unforgettable convertible drive made this a truly memorable experience. 5 stars isn’t enough—we would absolutely book with Denis again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Marseille Food Tour – Full Meal of Local Tastes by Do Eat Better

Anne_H, Oct 2026

Fabulous Food Tour with Food Expert

Our guide, Jean Rambert, was excellent. He and his wife owned a restaurant, so Jean is more than qualified to share his favorite restaurants and food choices with us! We went to five locations with a short walk in between each stop. It was excellent!!! Coincidentally our group of 12 were all people from our cruise ship, even though we all booked separately. We were given clear instructions where the meeting point was, including pinned on a map and Jean’s photo. The restaurants were ready for our arrival, we were served very quickly with the “small bites” that were ordered in advance. Three restaurant stops for savory local foods and two stops for sweets. We enjoyed food, wine and finished with cookies and pastries! Jean is an excellent guide, very knowledgeable about culinary arts, and also the fascinating history of Marseille which was founded 600 B.C. - the oldest city in France! I highly recommend the “Marseille Food Tour - Full Meal of Local Tastes” and Jean Rambert at “Do Eat Better experience”

The Best Tour On Our Trip

Gilles was a fantastic tour guide for 6 family members. our tour was of Aix en Provence, Cassis, and Notre Dame du Garde in Marseille. we all agreed this was the best tour of our 10 day trip to the Italian, French, and Spanish Riviera! Gilles gave us plenty of time to explore Aix and gave us a detailed history of the area. On the road to Cassis, he took us to a spectacular scenic overlook of the village and the bay. He brought us to an amazing restaurant where we got a taste of the local cuisine. on the way back to our ship, Gilles brought us to Notre Dame du Garde where we had a spectacular view of the city of marseille. he also took us inside the cathedral, where we were able to enjoy its beauty. Overall, Gilles was an excellent tour guide who was patient and understanding of our needs. would most definitely book with him on another tour when we visit Avignon. He was very easy to communicate with also.

You should DO this!

We decided the evening before that we wanted to book a private van and driver, and we 100% would do this again! Smaïn was the BEST! He asked what we wanted to see and do and he was great about giving us suggestions. He explained everything as we passed by, and gave us insight into life in Marseille. The drop offs and pick ups were perfect, and we were so glad we didn’t have to do so much walking. It was a wonderful way to see Marseille!
