14 days, round-trip Western Mediterranean from Barcelona

About this cruise

The kind of trip where you lose track of what day it is, and nobody cares. 14 nights from Barcelona on September 29, 2027, visiting Marseille, Savona and Civitavecchia (Rome), with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. 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. It's a proper Western Mediterranean tour: 3 countries, from France to Spain. 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 Favolosa: 3,016 guests, 13 decks. Entertainment, dining, and enough space that it never feels cramped. By night three you start recognising faces; by night ten you're swapping numbers. That's the magic of a longer sailing. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. Good route, good ship, good timing. It all lines up.
