Cobalt Gulfs – Portofino, Rome & Mallorca

About this cruise

You board in Barcelona on May 22, 2027 for 7 nights visiting Marseille, Genoa, La Spezia, Civitavecchia (Rome) and Palma de Mallorca, 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. It's a proper Western Mediterranean tour: 3 countries, from France to Spain. La Spezia stands out. It's Gateway to the pastel villages of Cinque Terre. Around 11 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, MSC World Europa has 9 dining spots on board, most of them included. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. All in all, it's a solid trip.
