About thirty minutes from Marseille, Cassis and the Calanques National Park are among the region's finest escapes. But in high season, parking is a nightmare and some roads are restricted. A private driver changes everything.
Why skip your own car
The centre of Cassis and access to the calanques (notably the Gineste road and the Port-Miou area) are saturated in summer, with car parks quickly full and paid. You may circle for a long time before parking far from the harbour.
The private driver solution
NeoShuttle drops you as close as possible to the harbour or the start of your hike, then comes back at the agreed time. You enjoy your day with no constraints: no parking, no painful drive home after a hike or a sunny lunch.
Day-trip ideas
- Morning boat trip to the Port-Miou, Port-Pin and En-Vau calanques
- Seafood lunch on the Cassis harbour
- Drive up to Cap Canaille, one of the highest sea cliffs in Europe
- Wine tasting in the Cassis appellation estates
How much it costs
The Marseille → Cassis transfer starts around €70 in a luxury sedan (about €100 in a van for up to 8 passengers). For a full day with waiting and return, hourly hire is often better value: ask for a quote, it's instant.
