Mediterranean Grandeur – Genoa & Marseille

About this cruise

If you want the classic cruise without a massive time commitment, this is a strong option. 10 nights from Warnemünde (Rostock) on October 10, 2027, visiting Brest, Leixões (Porto), Tarragona, Marseille and Genoa. The sailing ends in Genoa. The first couple of days are at sea, which gives you time to settle in and get to know the ship before the ports begin. The route threads through 4 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: France, Portugal, Spain and Italy. Most ports give you about 9 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, MSC Magnifica has 4 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. By night three you start recognising faces; by night ten you're swapping numbers. That's the magic of a longer sailing. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. If you've been thinking about a cruise, this 10-night sailing is a strong place to start.
