Golden Getaway – Mallorca & Cannes
About this cruise
You sail from Civitavecchia (Rome) on September 16, 2026 and spend 7 nights visiting Palma de Mallorca, Barcelona, Cannes, Genoa and La Spezia. 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. The route threads through 3 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: Spain, France and Italy. Most ports give you about 10 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, MSC Grandiosa has 6 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. Hard to ask for much more than that, honestly.
