Marseille Markets & Cooking Class, Marseille

Explore Marseille's culinary scene and end your day enjoying a delicious meal you created in a cooking class! You'll start by perusing the city's markets with a local gastronome, beginning with Vieux Port, Marseille's famed fish market. Shop here for the day's catch: red mullets, sea breams, or sea bass, depending on your preferences. Next, stroll around town and wind your way to the Capucins Market on the popular Canebière Street. Here, the smells of spices, fresh fruit, and local vegetables blend in a compelling mix.

Make your selections with your host's recommendations in mind, then continue to Paradis Street to visit your host's favorite wine shop. Once you've purchased all your ingredients, gather at a family's home in Marseille for a cooking class.

Spend the next two hours taking advantage of the savoir-faire and culinary skills of your passionate host, an authentic ambassador to Marseille's cuisine. But, of course, the best part of the day happens on the terrace at the end of the class. Savor your creations, take in the Southern France sunshine, and chat with your host.
