Mediterranean Gems – Barcelona, Marseille & Rome

About this cruise

This one leaves Barcelona on December 20, 2026 and spends 7 nights visiting Marseille, Genoa, Livorno (Florence/Pisa), Civitavecchia (Rome) and Valencia at a pace where every day has something going on but there's always time to just sit and watch the water too. 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. 3 countries (France, Italy and Spain) across the Western Mediterranean, each with its own character. Most ports give you about 12 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, You won't go hungry on MSC Sinfonia. 4 restaurants come with the fare, plus 0 more when you feel like treating yourself. The timing adds to it: swapping cold weather for sunshine and sea air is the whole pitch for a winter cruise. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
