Cobalt Horizons – Tunis, Palermo & Barcelona

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 Marseille on April 26, 2027 visits Barcelona, La Goulette (Tunis), Palermo, Naples and Livorno (Florence/Pisa). Expect a run of consecutive ports, 5 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. Crossing 3 borders through the Western Mediterranean: Spain, Tunisia and Italy. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Of the stops, Naples tends to be the one people talk about: Chaos, pizza, and passion beneath Vesuvius. Roughly 11 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. MSC Virtuosa takes the food seriously, with 7 restaurants to choose from. 1 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. And April is a good time to go. Mild weather, things starting to bloom, and fewer people than summer. Sometimes the best trips are the ones you just go ahead and book.
