Mediterranean Getaway – Riviera & Barcelona
About this cruise
Long enough to properly switch off but not so long you need to reorganise your entire life. This 7-night round-trip sailing from Genoa on October 5, 2026 visits La Spezia, Civitavecchia (Rome), Palma de Mallorca, Barcelona and Cannes. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 5 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. 3 countries (Italy, Spain and France) across the Western Mediterranean, each with its own character. Cannes stands out. It's Red-carpet glamour on the Côte d'Azur. Roughly 11 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. You won't go hungry on MSC Grandiosa. 1 restaurants come with the fare, plus 5 more when you feel like treating yourself. And October is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. All in all, it's a solid trip.
