5 days, round-trip Mini Cruises from Marseilles

About this cruise

It's the kind of trip that's easy to say yes to. 5 nights from Marseille on November 8, 2026, visiting Barcelona, Civitavecchia (Rome) and Savona. There's a new port nearly every day, 3 days ashore total, so you're kept busy. Roman ruins at one stop, Renaissance piazzas at the next. Centuries of history at every quay. 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 Smeralda: 5,224 guests, 20 decks. Entertainment, dining, and enough space that it never feels cramped. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. Hard to ask for much more than that, honestly.
