Mediterranean Grandeur – Barcelona & Rome
About this cruise
The kind of trip that's easy to say yes to and hard to regret. 10 nights from Barcelona on August 21, 2027, visiting Cartagena Spain, Tangier, Funchal, Málaga, Ajaccio and Civitavecchia (Rome). You wind up in Civitavecchia (Rome), so it's worth planning a night or two there. Every port day is followed by a sea day, so you get time to sleep in, use the ship, and look forward to the next stop. 5 countries (Spain, Morocco, Portugal, France and Italy) across the Western Mediterranean, each with its own character. Cartagena Spain stands out. It's Roman ruins beneath a Spanish sun. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. You won't go hungry on Celebrity Equinox. 5 restaurants come with the fare, plus 5 more when you feel like treating yourself. With more nights comes more time for the ship's rhythm to kick in: morning coffee in the same spot, evening shows, late-night conversations on deck. And August means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. All in all, it's a solid trip.
