French & Italian Riviera – Cannes, Genoa & Barcelona

About this cruise

The kind of trip that's easy to say yes to and hard to regret. 7 nights from Cannes on August 30, 2026, visiting Genoa, La Spezia, Civitavecchia (Rome), Palma de Mallorca and Barcelona. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 5 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. Warm plazas, gelato by the harbour, and old things everywhere you look. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be La Spezia, Gateway to the pastel villages of Cinque Terre. Roughly 11 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. MSC Grandiosa has 6 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. Cannes itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. And August means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
