City transportation in Marseille is represented by two subway lines, two streetcar lines and bus routes. The subway is the fastest and most convenient way to get around the city, especially in the evening and at night, as most buses only run until 21:00 and streetcars leave for the park at 00:30.
Ticket Prices
The price of a ticket for any type of transport in Marseille is 1.7 EUR. The ticket is valid for one hour and allows transfers without additional payment. A one-day pass costs 5.20 EUR, and a three-day pass — 10.80 EUR.
Tip for tourists: do not buy tickets from the bus driver. They are more expensive — 2 EUR for a single ride. Instead, purchase your Marseille public transport tickets at ticket offices at stops, in metro underpasses, or in cafés.
