Marseille Cruise Parking

[ingram62]

Hi

 

I am going on the MSC cruise departing on the 30th December from Marseille, any recommendations were I can park the car. I will also have to book a hotel for the day before and after the cruise.

 

Thanks

I visited the Marseille cruise ship terminals last month on a press trip. I'm afraid your options for parking are very limited -- really, there's just the cruise ship terminal car-park, which is quite expensive and has limited spaces (book in advance).

 

An alternative would be to leave the car in a city or airport car-park, but that too would be expensive and you'd have the extra hassle of having to get to the cruise port, which is out of the centre of town. There's no public car-parking near the terminals.

 

This page is a very detailled guide to Marseille's cruise ship terminals, and how to get to and from them. There's also details of the car park and the nearest hotels: http://www.marseille-provence.info/travel-rail-train-air-sea-road-motorways/boats-sea-ships-ferries-canals-rivers/385-marseille-cruise-ship-port.html
