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

About this cruise

9 nights is that sweet spot where you actually start to relax. This sailing from Palma de Mallorca on August 25, 2026 visits Ajaccio, Civitavecchia (Rome), La Spezia, Marseille and Barcelona and doesn't try to cram in too much. You ease into this one, with a few sea days up front to find your rhythm before the 5 port calls start. 3 countries (France, Italy and Spain) across the Western Mediterranean, each with its own character. Ajaccio stands out. It's Napoleon's birthplace on Corsican shores. Around 12 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Mein Schiff Flow (2026) is one of the newer ships out there, with current design and recent tech throughout. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. All in all, it's a solid trip.
