Transports in Marseille

Tramway, underground, bus and boatbus

RTM (Régie des transports marseillais)

Ticket : 1,90 € on board (1,50 € at the ticket dispenser). Tickets available 1h everywhere on the city transportation system. Cards of 10 journeys and pass for 1, 3, 7 days.
Tickets available in the underground stations, at Saint-Charles railway station or RTM registered traders. The transportation system works from 5 am to 0.30 am.

Boat shuttles

With the RTM (see below). 
Crossing : 5 € (including 1h30 of interconnection on the RTM transportation system). From April to September, 8 am-7 pm (10 pm from June to August). There 2 lines between the « Vieux-Port » to the Pointe-Rouge on one hand and to the “Estaque” on the other hand (chichi fregi as a reward !). 
A very good way to avoid urban traffic an discover the splendid seafront of Marseille (especially with the shuttle to the Pointe-Rouge).

A good tip : if you plan to use the boat shuttles (5 €/crossing and 10 € the round trip), please note that they are fre with the 7 days RTM pass (13,70 €)... Do the math !
