Seriously tho....why were schmucks only 5 euro? Enquiring minds need to know! When you travel, do you like to try to see as much as possible like me, or chill more like Nate?
Schmuck means jewelry in german 🙃
@@olka85 hah!!! Ok. That makes sense! Thank you!!!
The original word in Yiddish is shmok, so there seems to be a translation error to english language that was cultivated.
@@webidu interesting!
Schmuck is a Yiddish slang for penis. also can be the "clean up cloth" after sex. LOL!
The shuttle information from the cruise port was so VALUABLE. Thank you for sharing it. This information is not easy to find through any of VV’s communications, so personally, I really appreciate you sharing details. Thanks so much!
Of course! ♥️♥️ hope you enjoy your upcoming cruise!
I would like to personally thank you for taking the time to do your video. Marseille is our last stop on our 10 day cruise in November 2023. I have made a Playlist of our Vacation for my wife and friends joining us. This will be included. If I might be so bold and sometime I am afraid to say anything but please accept the complement in the most warm manner. Your red dress was outstanding. Great choice.
I’m French and lived close to Marseille for a long time! I have shown many of my foreign friends around and they all fell in love with the city. I’m glad you got to see so much in a little time
We loved it!! I definitely want to go back someday and stay longer when I’m not on a cruise :)
Do people speak English in Marseille?
@@nguyenloanngoc For the most part, yes, though as with anywhere in Europe you will encounter people who speak very little english or no english at all, but as a whole I'd say most people we interacted with spoke some English, though we always try to speak french while we are there just as a show of courtesy
@@nguyenloanngoc You will be able to find people who speak English especially younger people. Usually French people are reluctant to speak English (just a heads up). You'll have a wonderful time Marseille either way but if you have a French speaker during your trip, you'll have a blast
Same with me,everybody loves my beautiful city , I miss her everyday!😢
Thank you so much for this video! My husband and I are taking a Mediterranean cruise in November and I was looking for suggestions for our day in Marseille. I will be checking out your other videos!
Ahh that’s going to be so fun! Marseille was such a cool city to visit. What cruise are you taking?
@@MissMooreStyle We will be on the Costa Diadema leaving Barcelona on Nov. 4th. Soooo excited!
Thanks for sharing, it looks very much like Rom in Marseille. 🌹👍🏾👍🏾
The Marseille Port day trip is very elegant, Jessica!🌸🌸❤️❤️
Thank you Ervin!
You’re welcome, Jessica!
I laughed at the walking 9 hours a day comment 🤣 I totally agree with him.
Thanks a lot for the video! Will be in Marseille soon and gonna go to all the places you mention in the video ☺
Hahah I’m glad you could sympathize with Nate’s plight…lots of people giving him flack for that in the comments 😂😬 I hope you enjoy marseille!
This was tremendous, Jessica. Your editing skills are _so_ on-point btw 🤌🏻 You actually remind me of prime Catherine Zeta Jones, ngl.
Vive la Tricolor, vive la France! 🇫🇷
Thank you Brad!!! I’m always trying to up my editing every time so that means a lot, I’m particularly proud of this one :) and I’ll take prime CZJ! Was actually just watching her in Chicago last night, she’s amazing :)
Nice video thank you for all the great info!
Thanks so much!!!
Fun fact: the "wannabe" Hollywood sign was actually built by Netflix to promote a show named... Marseille 😊
Wild!! I have never heard of it. I also noticed cannes had a similar kind of sign, tho not as clearly inspired by the hollywood sign in its aesthetics
Loved your vlog thankyou xx
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching!!!
I see u in marseille omg u are vloggers thats great ❤
Respect from algeria 🇩🇿
Checking every day to see when the next port video is up 😎 we plan on doing this same itinerary in October!
Cannes is in the works right now, I hope to have that one up on Monday!
@@MissMooreStyle can’t wait!! 💗
Thank you for this walk thru, I'll be in Marseille for a day in June (cruising) and was going to pay the whopping $73 for a day tour. I usually do the Hop-on-off bus but one never knows how far the terminal is until arriving and already purchased the ship's excursion. You save me some euros.
Glad it could help! It’s absolutely doable to just create your own little day tour while you’re there :)
Keep going lkke this Mary...
Your video editing skills are superb! Colorful and vivid imagery with a fluid transition and flow of content!👏🏾👏🏾
Thanks so much Anna!!!
Thanks! Very helpful!!
🥰🥰🥰
Hey LA girl,
You actually did a pretty good job narrating the day trip in Marseille.
I was pleasantly surprised and impressed.
I’m inclined to think that you do this professionally.
And if you don’t, you definitely should.
So 👍👍 for you.
Just one minor little detail though; what’s up with cranky ?! 😁
You know.. ‘’let’s go climb more $hit’’
Nothing like a great travel companion to enjoy your trip, right ?! 😉
Who said the let’s go climb quote, I can’t remember. If it was me, eh, I just talk like that sometimes but I love climbing stuff. Exercise is good. Nate isn’t really that grumpy, his feet just start hurting. Still gotta figure out better shoes for him 🤣
Glad you enjoyed and thought I was professional! I always try to do a good amount of research on the places I visit so I can share interesting and helpful info!
No, it wasn’t you who said:
‘’Let go climb more ...’’
Your dude did.
And you said something along the lines of:
‘’He’s so mad at me..’’
‘’It’s only day 2 in Europe.. day 2 of our cruise trip, and I’ve already broken him.
That’s not a good sign’’
Refer back to the 11th minute onward.
I'm in love with your vlogs, what program are you using for that gorgeous text behind you please? It's FABULOUS! Thank you!
Thank you!!! I do that using this program! Basically you import the clip you want to have that title in, and you mark off everything in the clip that you want to cut out to be on top. Once you do that you export it as a green screen and lay it over the original clip in your editing software’s timeline and put the title between the original clip and the green screen clip and bam that’s how you do it :) runwayml.com
Me and a friend went on a cruise and this was one of our ports, so we did a electric bike tour that lasted 6 hrs and yes we rode up to the church I thought I was gonna die lol it was a long day but got to see so much I will never forget it haha
That sounds like it was a fun tour! Did the electric bikes not get you up that hill? Whew. That would be some work to pedal up!
@MissMooreStyle no it got us up there but a little scary on that road going up but we had a blast
Entered. Thank you
Nothing more American than travelling to France and grab a burger for lunch 😂
Other than that... Good vídeo and suggestions on what to see in the city
Lol I had a niçois salad. Can’t really dictate what my husband wants to eat, that’s his choice 😂 French restaurants do serve burgers as well so….not sure what to tell ya 🤷🏻♀️
Hello, love your vlog. Do you happen to remember details on getting from Marsailles aeroport MRS, ? if you happened to travel from Airport to your ship.
I do not! We came and left via the cruise ship!!
There is a bus that takes straight to the airport from the train station Saint Charles.
@@bibaoreo4355 Thanks! I am guessing St Charles is close to the Pier.
@@acs5008 yes around 10 min walk. Or you can also take the metro from St Charles to get to The Old Port.
Thanks you very much
🥰
Virgin Voyages ❤️
♥️♥️
Loved the video! How long was your whole trip in Marseille, time you left, time you came back? I am bringing my kids, both runners so they will keep up with the stairs and walk. It’s me the problem 😢
Thanks!!! You mean what time we got off the ship and went back on? I’d say we got on the bus around 10am, got back on around 4:30 bc it just was super hot at that point and we’d basically seen all we could see without risking being too late to get back on the ship.
@@MissMooreStyle great! Thanks! I have an idea now. We will be doing the same cruise in a couple of weeks.
Thankyou
😊❤
♥️♥️
Great video going to Marseille in 2weeks! Is the bus to the old port Free? Or do we have to purchase tickets? Thank you!!
Are you talking about the bus we were on in the very beginning that got us to the old port? Yes, it was free! Are you going there on a virgin cruise?
@@MissMooreStyle Yes the very first bus. We are leaving out of Barcelona on Royal Caribbean! So excited. Thanks for your response🤩
@@marireyes8565 gotcha! well in that case, i'm not entirely sure, since this bus was basically just for us virgin voyage passengers, but i'm sure royal caribbean will have a similar set up for you guys! As with all cruises, I'd just say when you get on board ask someone how their disembarking process works when you get to the ports and whether or not you have to sign up for a designated time to get off the ship/get on the bus, etc, that way you can know what you need to do and if you have to secure a sort of spot ahead of time.
Looks like you got to explore quite a lot in one day. How many hours did you stay in port? Going to Marseille next week on a cruise
We did for sure! I’d say we got on the shuttle around 10am and got back on the shuttle to port at about 5pm ish?
I am doing a similar trip soon. We are planning on getting various currencies from our bank before we go to save on exchange rates. How did you deal with money? Did you credit card everything? Or exchange when you got there?
I always try to exchange my money to the currency I’ll be in before it leave! I have a place in LA I go to that has a pretty low exchange rate. We did try to use our credit card (chase sapphire reserve) whenever possible just to conserve the cash for times when it is absolutely necessary. A couple cafes in marseille we could only pay in cash so I’d def recommend having some on hand when you get into that port!
Did you do any shore excursions through Virgin or just wandered on your own at each port? TIA!
We just wandered on our own!! I wanted to be able to see as much of each port as I could but in hindsight, an excursion in olbia might have been good, tho we kinda made our own excursion there
Hello, where do you purchase the tickets for the train to Notre Dame? Is there a website? Thanks for the video.
It’s just a little ticket booth right there in the old port, you can’t miss it bc the trains will be sitting there right next to it waiting to leave
Does the ticket for the Petit Train to Notre Dame De la Garde need to be bought in advance or at the time you are takinng the train? Also, I read it is an 8 minute walk to the shuttle bus terminal, but you say there at buses right at the port. Is that still accurate information? Very informative video. My 7 sisters & I are taking this cruise and we each have a port to research and this is my port so any added information would be appreciated. Thank you!
You can just walk up and purchase the petit train ticket, they seem to have them coming and going continuously. When we went, the shuttle buses to the city were right in front of the ship so a 30 second walk. When you want to come back, you just go to where the buses drop you off, which is right near the fort that we went to last. Not sure what the 8 min walk would be? Also I made videos for every port on this cruise if you want to check those out to see what we did there :)
@@MissMooreStyle Thank you so much for the reply! Do you have any idea what the cost of the shuttle bus is?
@@scottlewis250 the shuttle bus to and from the ship? That is free, Virgin provides that for you
@@MissMooreStyle There is a bus to the Notre Dame De la Garde. We used it to get up and then walked down after our visit. Can't remember the fare cos it was 10 years ago. We boarded from the port area.
The guy is in Europe and he doesn't want to walk? ... Haceme el bendito favor! Marseilles looks so nice!
He just gets tired lol Marseilles was so cool def need to go back and see more of it someday
How long did you have in port? Did you feel like you had to rush through everything?
Technically we arrived at like 7am BUT there was a strike in the docks so it delayed our ability to get off the ship till like 9, but I believe we had until about 7pm? So actually a good amount of time
how do you pay for things- Transportation? food? USD cash? or credit cards? or do you have to exchange money for their euros.
So we have a credit card with 0 foreign transaction fees so we use that whenever possible but whenever I go to another country I always go and exchange cash USD for whatever currency of the country I’m going to just to have some cash on hand for those places where they only take cash, which happened a couple times in marseille. Highly recommend exchanging your money before you leave home either from your bank or a currency exchange place that is local to you, because usually their exchange rates/fees will be less than if you do it in the airport or in the destination once you arrive
👁👁👍
What was the cost of the shuttle from the ship to town?
It was free, that is provided by virgin!
Schmuck is German for jewelry
It's always funny to watch video of foreign people, of a place I know very much (I live closed to Marseille, actually between Aix-en-Provence and Marseille. I worked and made a part of my studies in Marseille, too). And How they see this place, their gaze on it.
Marseille seems so much more beautiful in yours eyes than in the reality. In fact, to me, Marseille have the potential to be beautiful and important as much as other major cities in France. But too dirty, too much incivilities, too poor (the state of some buildings is scary), to much corruptions.
How the city grow up in La Joliette (near the port) is a nonsense architectural when you compare it to Confluence in Lyon. Too poor artisticly for the 2nd city of France, etc.I hate to go in Marseille, the circulation is horrible, etc.
So I see only the defects. And strangely, I want to visit this Marseille wich doesn't exist.
I can see what you mean about marseille and I definitely didn’t think it was the most beautiful city but to me there was something kind of beautiful about its shabbiness. To me it was just interesting to see something so different than Paris, which up until this trip was the only other place I’d been in France. It is a bit of a rough place but I liked it. The day we had there was probably enough so it’s not necessarily a place I feel like I need to go back to but it was interesting!
@@MissMooreStyle You miss after Fort Saint Jean, the Mucem, and like you say in your video, la" cathédrale de la Major" (very very beautiful, I prefer it to Notre Dame de la Garde). Near "le quartier du Panier", and at the other side of Fort Saint-Jean, "le Palais du Pharo". The littles island of the Frioul, and "Chateau d'If" (wich inspired the comte of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas) in front of "Le Vieux Port". If you like architecture "la maison du fada" (Cité radieuse of Le Corbusier), and of course "le Parc des Calanques". And other place like Friche Belle de Mai (artistic place, and roof-top), Vieille Charité, Parc Borély...
But For sure, Provence is so much more than Marseille. Aix en Provence of course, near to Marseille. La Ciotat..., and to me Arles, the most beautiful city of Provence, I'm in love with this city. Avignon (Le Palais des papes), and a lot of small cities and villages : Les Baux de Provence, with "La carrière de Lumière", a must have, projection of paint, art, etc. Saint Rémy de Provence, Gordes. The island of Porquerolles. La Côte bleue (beaches and Calanques), La Camargue, the fortress city of Aigues Mortes, Gordes, Isles sur la Sorgue, Lourmarin, etc., etc.
I live there, and don't have enough time in lifetime to see all the beautifull places in Provence.
And in France too. Everywhere I go in France, I always see beautiful places, landscape, nature or cities. And I don't say that because I'm french and chauvinist. Just because, to me, It's such a chance to live there and be surrounded by beauty and history, art, architecture, that I tend to forget in everyday life like the French people in general.
@@spikulu3229 I definitely want to go and see more of the Provence region someday! That is the tease of being on a cruise, you only get a short time before you have to move on…but what a dream to get to live there. We will definitely be back to explore more of these places someday soon hopefully ♥️
Helo
When you are in Marseille and you order fastfood than you have to be an American.
