Marseille Essentials: History and Charm

Yes, we do offer a discount when booking multiple private full day Cruise Port tours from different ports, booked under the same name and cruise ship itinerary with the same departure date. The discount is automatically applied at checkout when booking two or more cruise port tours from different ports with our company. The discount is as follows: 30€ off each tour when booking 2 tours from different cruise ports, 40€ off each tour when booking 3 tours from different cruise port tours, 50€ off each tour when booking 4 tours from different cruise port tours. The multi-tour discount is not combinable with any other discounts or offers.

We provide services in luxury Mercedes and Volkswagen sedans, minivans or minibuses (depending on availability). For parties of 1-3 guests we normally use a sedan. For parties of 4-8 guests we use minivans. And for parties larger than 8 guests we either use multiple minivans or a minibus (depending upon availability).

For groups above 7 passengers, vehicles may vary based on location and availability:

- From Naples, Sorrento, Amalfi, Salerno, Taormina, Catania or Messina: Mercedes Sprinter minibus or multiple luxury minivan

- From Civitavecchia, Livorno or La Spezia: multiple minivan

A tour driver and a tour guide are not the same. When booking a private tour, it is important to understand the difference so you know exactly what you are paying for. A tour guide holds an official license, usually issued by the state or country, and has completed formal studies in the history and culture of the sites you will visit. Guides are permitted to enter historical sites with you and provide detailed explanations. Their services are naturally an additional cost. A tour driver, on the other hand, is not licensed as a guide, has not attended guide school, and is not permitted to enter sites to provide historical commentary. Their services are therefore more economical. Many drivers are very knowledgeable about local history and culture, but they are legally required to provide explanations only while inside the vehicle. Once you are dropped off, they cannot offer historical explanations, as doing so may result in fines issued by the authorities.
