Mediterranean Grand Tour – Riviera, Malta & Rome

About this cruise

If you've got 12 nights to work with, this sailing from Barcelona on July 16, 2026 through Cannes, La Spezia and Ajaccio, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean is genuinely one of the better ways to spend them. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. It's a proper Western Mediterranean tour: 4 countries, from France to Spain. Palma de Mallorca stands out. It's A Gothic cathedral mirrored in the harbour. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Celebrity Equinox has 10 dining spots on board, most of them included. The longer time on board means you'll catch several shows, themed nights, and start feeling like a regular at your favourite bar. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. All in all, it's a solid trip.
