Private driver to the Môle Léon Gourret cruise terminal
Most cruise ships calling at Marseille dock at the Môle Léon Gourret cruise terminal, in the northern port, about 8 km from the Old Port. It is far from the city centre, away from public transport, and rarely walkable with luggage for a week at sea. Your private driver drops you right outside your cruise line’s terminal.

Check your terminal before booking
The Môle Léon Gourret handles the large ships, but your cruise line may give a different boarding point in the port. The terminal name is on your boarding pass or in your travel documents: give it to us when you book, along with the ship’s name and your boarding time. Your driver drops you as close as possible to the baggage drop.
On embarkation day
- Pick-up at your hotel, the station or the airport, at the agreed time.
- Luggage loading: up to 2 suitcases in a Sedan or Eco, up to 8 in a Van.
- Drop-off outside your cruise line’s terminal, as close as possible to baggage check-in.
Tip: arrive at the terminal at the time given by your cruise line, usually several hours before departure. Do not leave it to the last minute on a busy day.
On disembarkation day
Passengers often disembark over several hours. Your driver works around your disembarkation slot, waits for you at the terminal exit and can be reached by text. You are then driven to the airport, the station or your hotel.
Cruise passengers travelling as a family or group
The 8-seat van (Mercedes V-Class or Vito) is the most requested vehicle at the port: eight passengers and eight suitcases for €50 from the city centre. Baby seat or booster seat on request, at €5.
