20 Night Cruise from Genoa

About this cruise

Block out 20 nights from November 2, 2026 and let this sailing from Genoa do its thing. The route covers Barcelona, Málaga and Cádiz, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean and there's plenty of room to breathe between each stop. You wind up in Rio de Janeiro, so it's worth planning a night or two there. In between port days, the 10 sea days are where cruise life actually happens: reading, eating, napping, repeat. It's a proper Western Mediterranean tour: 4 countries, from Spain to Brazil. Lisbon stands out. It's Seven hills of fado, pastéis, and golden light. Roughly 8 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Costa Diadema carries up to 3,724 guests over 14 decks. Multiple pools, a theatre, and more restaurants than you'll get through. The shows alone are worth the extra nights. You'll catch comedy, music, theatre, and themed evenings you'd miss on a shorter trip. And November is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. All in all, it's a solid trip.
