136 days, round-trip World Cruise from Marseilles

About this cruise

The kind of trip where you lose track of what day it is, and nobody cares. 136 nights from Marseille on November 26, 2027, visiting Barcelona, Cádiz and Lisbon, with additional stops along the Australia & New Zealand. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. 28 countries (Spain, Portugal, United States, Bahamas, Panama, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Mexico, Samoa, Fiji, Tonga, New Zealand, Australia, Papua New Guinea, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Sri Lanka, Maldives, Mauritius, South Africa, Namibia and Cape Verde) across the Australia & New Zealand, each with its own character. Most ports give you about 10 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Costa Deliziosa carries 2,260 guests across 12 decks, with the usual resort-style amenities. 136 nights is long enough to build a routine on board: favourite restaurant, favourite deck chair, favourite people. It starts to feel like a floating village. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
