9 nights – Highlights of the Western Mediterranean – from/to Palma

About this cruise

9 nights, 6 ports, all from Palma de Mallorca on September 18, 2026. The route visits Ajaccio, Civitavecchia (Rome), La Spezia, Cannes, Valencia and Barcelona and the whole thing just flows. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. The route threads through 3 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: France, Italy and Spain. You get around 11 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, There are 11 restaurants on Mein Schiff 6, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 9 nights. A September sailing dodges the peak crowds while the weather is still cooperating. Well timed. 9 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.
