Latitude Cross – Barcelona, Tenerife & Barbados

About this cruise

If you've got 20 nights to work with, this sailing from Civitavecchia (Rome) on November 15, 2026 through La Spezia, Marseille and Barcelona, with additional stops along the Caribbean is genuinely one of the better ways to spend them. The trip wraps in Fort-de-France, so you won't retrace your steps. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. The Caribbean route takes in Italy, France, Spain, Sint Maarten, St. Kitts & Nevis, St. Vincent & Grenadines, Barbados, Grenada and Martinique, 9 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. Keep an eye out for La Spezia: Gateway to the pastel villages of Cinque Terre. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. MSC World Europa keeps you well fed. 9 places to eat, with 4 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. The longer time on board means you'll catch several shows, themed nights, and start feeling like a regular at your favourite bar. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. If you can, add a night in Civitavecchia (Rome) before boarding. It's a good city to wander. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. That's 20 nights well spent.
