So easy to jump on and off. The circuit was not too big making it easy to get around town. The commentary was also very good.

The bus driver was great, he didn't touch any house fronts, very nice route along the coast and very narrow streets. It's also great that you can use your own headphones via a QR code.

Ticketing was easy. The bus was a good introduction to the City, as always when we land someplace new. Not as much commentary as we've come to expect, in contrast to, say, Edinburgh

On vacation in Marseille, we took the Colorbus to visit the city. We boarded at the old port, and the staff were very pleasant. After reserving a ticket on the Internet, we exchanged it for a ticket valid for the whole day. The tour has several stops. You get off wherever you want to visit the site you've chosen, and then get back on again at the same point, redeeming your ticket. It was a very pleasant visit. However, beware of branches if you get on the top floor of the bus.

Explore Marseille with ease and at your own pace, hopping on and off at your leisure. Absorb the breathtaking views of the city and buckle up for a whirlwind of sightseeing. The route takes you through the Basilica of Notre-Dame de la Garde, perched on a hilltop overlooking the city with jaw-dropping views of the city and the sparkling Mediterranean. There's also the iconic Marseille Cathedral by the Old Port – a striking blend of Romanesque and Byzantine architectural styles. Keep your eyes peeled for bustling markets and harbors like the Vallon des Auffes, a fishing harbor with traditional boats, rainbow-colored houses, and the tastiest seafood joints you’ll ever find.
