    • We’ll explain to you that you don’t need a degree in the history of art to introduce visitors to your city, because any inhabitant of Marseille or the region can become a Greeter.

    • We’ll meet up with you to answer your questions and see why you want to become a Greeter.
    • We’ll inspire you to become one of the privileged members of the worldwide Greeters Family.
    • Next, you’ll learn all our tricks and tips under the wing of an experienced Marseille Provence Greeter.

We were a bit apprehensive about the walk with Renée at first, but it really exceeded our expectations. We learnt a lot – and laughed a lot too! We’ll definitely be back! Lisa
