Mediterranean Gems – Palma, Barcelona & Rome

About this cruise

You sail from Valencia on November 6, 2026 and spend 8 nights visiting Palma de Mallorca, Barcelona, Marseille, Genoa, Livorno (Florence/Pisa) and Civitavecchia (Rome). 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. It's a proper Western Mediterranean tour: 3 countries, from Spain to Italy. Most ports give you about 11 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, MSC Sinfonia has 4 dining spots on board, most of them included. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. You start in Valencia and come back with stories from Spain, France and Italy.
