Promenade des Anglais at sunrise by myself was worth the whole trip.
Solo and on the older side, I worried the pace might be too much, but it was gentle and easy to manage. The evening cruise past the Eiffel Tower was the sort of thing I'd have talked myself out of at home, and I'm so glad I didn't.
Nice mornings by the sea, Paris evenings under the tower, Marseille's basilica view to close, it all flows so naturally for someone travelling alone. I never once felt unsafe or lost the entire week.
Lovely week of sightseeing, but my Marseille room sat right above a bar and the noise ran late every night, so I flew home short on sleep. The daytime sights, the basilica especially, were faultless.
Eiffel Tower at night from the river cruise stop is non negotiable, do not skip it.
Nice mornings by the sea, Paris evenings under the Eiffel Tower, Marseille's basilica view at the end, this itinerary flows really well for someone travelling alone. Never felt unsafe or lost at any point.
