Mediterranean Getaway – Riviera & Barcelona

About this cruise

There's a reason 7-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Genoa on August 10, 2026 and visits La Spezia, Civitavecchia (Rome), Palma de Mallorca, Barcelona and Cannes. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. The route threads through 3 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: Italy, Spain and France. You get around 11 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, MSC Grandiosa has 6 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. An August departure puts you in the best summer conditions: long days, warm nights, plenty of sun. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
