Day Excursions from Port Toulon in 2014: Advice?

[In Retirement]

It seems logical that as a port increases in cruise ship visits, the number of available local tour options will increase associated with demand? Our visit will be 10 hours on Thursday 4 June (out of Barcelona) and we are a family of seven including school aged and their grandparents.

 

I would be most thankful to hear about both wonderful and difficult experiences -- sometimes problem avoidance is the greatest assistance? Expecting a day with a van driver with multiple stops, maybe to include some boat experience? (Already ran into a company in Marseille, but not paying for a van to drive there first to start such an adventure; something local should be possible?

Much thanks,

DJ:)
