Mediterranean Gems – Valletta & Kotor

About this cruise

If you want the classic cruise without a massive time commitment, this is a strong option. 7 nights from Barcelona on April 26, 2026, visiting Valletta, Corfu, Dubrovnik, Kotor, Split and Ravenna. Last stop: Ravenna. 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 5 countries along the Eastern Mediterranean coast: Malta, Greece, Croatia, Montenegro and 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, There are 14 restaurants on Norwegian Pearl, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 7 nights. A spring departure helps too: decent weather and a calmer feel at each port. Good route, good ship, good timing. It all lines up.
