7 days, round-trip 7 Night French Riviera and Italy Cruise

About this cruise

Long enough to properly switch off but not so long you need to reorganise your entire life. This 7-night round-trip sailing from Barcelona on September 26, 2027 visits La Spezia, Civitavecchia (Rome), Ajaccio, Cannes and Marseille. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 5 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. The Western Mediterranean does coastal beauty and good eating in equal measure. Don't rush through Marseille, which is known as France's oldest city, salty and soulful. Roughly 11 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Resilient Lady is part of the Virgin Voyages fleet. Long enough that you stop checking your phone. Short enough that you're not bored. And September is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. All told, 5 ports across 7 nights covers a lot.
