Glamour & Grapes – Riviera & Rome

About this cruise

There's a reason 7-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Marseille on July 23, 2026 and visits Tarragona, Valencia, Livorno (Florence/Pisa), Civitavecchia (Rome) and Genoa. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. Warm plazas, gelato by the harbour, and old things everywhere you look. You get around 11 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, MSC Orchestra has 5 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. A July departure puts you in the best summer conditions: long days, warm nights, plenty of sun. Whether you've cruised before or not, this 7-night itinerary is a genuinely good one.
