Mediterranean Getaway – Riviera & Barcelona

About this cruise

No complicated itinerary, no back-to-back transfers, just the ports, the ship, and the sea in between. This 7-night sailing from Genoa on August 24, 2026 visits La Spezia, Civitavecchia (Rome), Palma de Mallorca, Barcelona and Cannes. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. 3 countries (Italy, Spain and France) across the Western Mediterranean, each with its own character. People come back from this cruise talking about Cannes: Red-carpet glamour on the Côte d'Azur. Around 11 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. You won't go hungry on MSC Grandiosa. 1 restaurants come with the fare, plus 5 more when you feel like treating yourself. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. 5 ports, 3 countries, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
