Hmm... Well I'd be more than happy for our scheduled stop in Marseille to be moved to another port. Monaco would be a nice exchange! :D

 

Its not the IS factor... merely that I dont like anything much I hear about Marsaille.

 

Nothing much reported but the evacuation of passengers certainly took place

Latest reports indicate it was probably old munitions from WW2 detonating spontaneously underwater. No terrorist bomb, no damage to ferry nor injury to any persons.

We were on the June 3rd Vista sailing and did a private tour with Provence Connection and had a magical day in Provence. There are other options besides Marseille. We did a lot of research beforehand to see what was in the area besides the city
