7 Night Cruise from Genoa

About this cruise

You board in Genoa on August 22, 2026 for 7 nights visiting Marseille, Barcelona, Ibiza, Palermo and Civitavecchia (Rome), and you come back from this kind of trip wondering why you don't do it more often. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Crossing 3 borders through the Western Mediterranean: France, Spain and Italy. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. People come back from this cruise talking about Ibiza: White-island energy from sunset to sunrise. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. At 185,010 gross tons, Costa Smeralda is big enough that you can find a quiet corner or a crowd, depending on your mood. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. 5 ports, 3 countries, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
