Blow out the candles differently: a festive electric tuk-tuk ride through Marseille.

← All our articles

Out of ideas to mark the occasion? For an original birthday in Marseille, skip yet another restaurant dinner and treat the birthday guest — and everyone invited — to a festive electric tuk-tuk ride through the city’s finest neighbourhoods. A joyful, unusual outing packed with memories.

A birthday idea that changes everything

Celebrating a birthday in Marseille by tuk-tuk turns a simple journey into a party. From the moment you leave the Old Port, the mood is set: music, laughter, photo stops at the most spectacular viewpoints. Our driver-guides know how to spring a surprise and pace the ride so everyone makes the most of it.

The tuk-tuk suits every wish: a relaxed cruise to discover the city, a grand entrance at the party venue, or a panoramic loop up to the Corniche. The vehicle can be decorated in the colours of the event to boost the wow factor.

For children and adults alike

Children’s birthday: nothing beats a tuk-tuk ride to delight the little ones. Safe (limited speed) and fun, it becomes the highlight of the party and a talking point at school for weeks.

Adult or surprise birthday: for a 30th, 40th, 50th or any milestone, the element of surprise works a treat. We pick up the birthday guest when they least expect it and head for a secret location. Your guests will love this original, thoroughly Marseillais moment.

Simple, bespoke organisation

Our fleet can gather up to 21 people in a convoy. We build the service with you:

  • Meeting point at the Old Port or elsewhere in the centre;
  • Made-to-measure route based on the duration and your favourite spots;
  • Decoration of the vehicle for the occasion;
  • Photo stops guaranteed to capture the day.
