An unusual thing to do in Marseille

Discovering the Phocaean city differently, aboard an electric tuk-tuk.

← All our articles

Already walked the length of the Old Port and done the rounds of the museums? To get off the beaten track, treat yourself to the unusual thing to do in Marseille: an electric tuk-tuk ride that shows you the Phocaean city from an entirely fresh angle. Original, sociable and eco-friendly, it’s the experience that sticks in the memory.

The tuk-tuk, the original activity par excellence

Marseille is not short of classic tours — but few offer the freedom and fun of a tuk-tuk. Silent and nimble, it slips through streets where buses can’t go, climbs to the belvederes and stops on a whim. You see more, you take better photos, and you enjoy the sea air effortlessly.

It’s also an eco-friendly activity: our fleet is 100% electric, with no noise and no emissions. A responsible way to discover the city that also unlocks alleys and pedestrian zones off-limits to coaches.

Unusual for couples, families or friends

  • As a couple: nothing beats a ride along the Corniche at golden hour, with the Mediterranean as your backdrop.
  • As a family: children love it, parents just go with the flow — a fun outing for all ages.
  • With friends: perfect for a weekend, a birthday or a hen / stag party that breaks the mould.

Whatever the format, our driver-guides adjust the tone: a guided tour rich in anecdotes, or a simple pleasure ride to soak up the scenery.

What unusual sights to see in Marseille by tuk-tuk

Our playground is Marseille’s hidden gems: the colourful façades and washing-lined windows of the Le Panier district, the picturesque Vallon des Auffes and its little fishing harbour, the panoramas of the Corniche Kennedy facing the Frioul islands, and the climb up to Notre-Dame de la Garde. All places best savoured at the gentle pace of a tuk-tuk.
