Crimson Dawns – Riviera & Lisbon

About this cruise

You sail from Genoa on July 7, 2027 and spend 10 nights visiting Marseille, Málaga and Cádiz, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. It's a well-tested route and there's a reason people keep booking it. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. It's a proper Western Mediterranean tour: 4 countries, from France to Italy. Most ports give you about 9 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, MSC Sinfonia has 4 dining spots on board, most of them included. 10 nights is long enough to build a routine on board: favourite restaurant, favourite deck chair, favourite people. It starts to feel like a floating village. It's peak season, so the weather is at its best and the ship will be full. That's part of the fun. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
