  1. The taxi system is quite developed and you will most definitely have a taxi rank right outside of the terminal. While the line can look ominous at a peak time, it does move very quickly.

     

    About 20 taxis pull in at a time to pickup passengers and there is a constant flow of taxis from the nearby holding area.

    How much is the taxi fare from port to airport?

  2. One hint, if you decide to take a taxi to the bus/train station and your ship shuttle back after your return...make sure you know where the shuttles pick up for return to the port. After visiting Aix, we decided to stroll Vieux Port, so we took the Metro that area. We had a dickens of a time finding the shuttle...thankfully someone standing in an MSC line, spoke English and knew where our shuttle was located. TI in Marseille was able to get us to the general area, but we still had difficulty...because it was unmarked (cruise line miss-MSC had theirs marked with a sign.)

     

    Bus to Aix worked great, there was one loading when we got there and the taxi driver pointed out where to go. In Aix, it's only a short walk to central sites. Wait for bus back from Aix was less than 5 minutes.

     

    If you are there on a Saturday, it's market day. Great markets, in three or four locations...almost contiguous.

    Is there shuttle going to bus/train station from cruise port? Wondering what other option is there besides taxi to the station. Thanks.
