Mediterranean Magic – Barcelona, Palermo & Naples
About this cruise
This one leaves Barcelona on July 20, 2027 and spends 7 nights visiting La Goulette (Tunis), Palermo, Naples, Livorno (Florence/Pisa) and Marseille at a pace where every day has something going on but there's always time to just sit and watch the water too. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. The Western Mediterranean route takes in Tunisia, Italy and France, 3 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. Most ports give you about 10 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, MSC Virtuosa keeps you well fed. 7 places to eat, with 1 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. It's peak season, so the weather is at its best and the ship will be full. That's part of the fun. You start in Barcelona and come back with stories from Tunisia, Italy and France.
