Day Trip Details
We will gather at the specified time on Avenue Giuseppe Verdi in Aix-en-Provence. Following that, we will journey toward the coastline aboard a minibus, reaching the picturesque village of Cassis after approximately one hour.
Upon arrival, we'll proceed along Crest Road, making our way to Cape Canaille, the tallest sea cliff in Europe. Standing at the summit, you'll be treated to some of the most breathtaking vistas of the region. Afterwards, we will visit the charming and vibrant fishing port of Cassis.
