Mediterranean Grandeur – Menorca, Sardinia & Lisbon
About this cruise
A week or so at sea, a few great ports, and nothing to organise once you're on board. This 10-night sailing from Alicante on July 29, 2026 visits Port Mahon, Olbia and Genoa, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 7 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. It's a proper Western Mediterranean tour: 4 countries, from Spain to Portugal. Olbia stands out. It's Sardinia's Emerald Coast at your feet. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, MSC Opera has 4 dining spots on board, most of them included. 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 July means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. All in all, it's a solid trip.
