What to expect

You'll download the Explorial app and receive a series of location-based puzzles. Each riddle solved directs you to the next landmark—ranging from famous squares to tucked-away monuments. The walk winds through Marseille's varied quarters, mixing major sights with quieter discoveries. You move independently, pausing to read clues, figure out answers, and absorb your surroundings before moving on. The experience blends traditional sightseeing with a game element, keeping you engaged as you learn the city's geography and history organically rather than through a scripted commentary.

Good to know

Public transport options exist if you need breaks between sections. The app works on your own smartphone, so bring a charged device and data connection. Not suitable for those with spinal injuries or pregnant travellers. Service animals are welcome.
