“Unpolished Toulon simply doesn't fit into the sparkling world of the Côte d'Azur.” – A harsh judgment by some travel guides that we cannot let stand. Toulon has much more to offer than just its naval port.
Vibrant Port City with Character
If you are looking for glitz and glamour, you might be in the wrong place. But if you want to stroll through the cozy alleys of the old town, admire shop windows, or find something special in art shops, you have come to the right place. Toulon is an interesting, lively city with friendly, open-minded people – a rugged charm that definitely wins you over upon closer inspection.
Above the Rooftops: Mont Faron
An absolute highlight is Mont Faron. Whether by a sweat-inducing bike ride or a relaxed cable car trip: from the top, the full beauty of the sea and the offshore islands reveals itself. On a clear day, the view extends along the coast all the way to La Ciotat with its world-famous cliff. It is a panorama that proves any "passer-by" wrong.
Our Recommendation
Take the cable car up Mont Faron. It is the fastest way to leave the city's hustle and bustle behind and enjoy one of the most spectacular coastal panoramas in Provence.
