Cruising near Toulon and don't want to pay for an excursion to Provence, Marseille, or Hyères? Here's what's within walking distance of the port, and it's completely free. In this video I walk through La Seyne-sur-Mer, France: a historic naval shipbuilding town turned creative hub, complete with murals, a working harbor, a local market, and an art store that turned into the surprise highlight of my day. If you want to actually see the town your ship docks near, without booking a single excursion, this is your guide. #cruiseport #laidofftakeoff #frenchriviera #budgettravel #cruisetips #laseynesurmer #portday #freetravel
