Mediterranean Magic – Barcelona & Santorini

About this cruise

A week or so at sea, a few great ports, and nothing to organise once you're on board. This 7-night sailing from Valletta on June 5, 2026 visits Barcelona, Marseille, Livorno (Florence/Pisa), Cagliari and Palermo. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 5 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. It's a proper Western Mediterranean tour: 3 countries, from Spain to Italy. Don't rush through Livorno (Florence/Pisa), which is known as Tuscan art and the Leaning Tower await. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, MSC Splendida has 6 dining spots on board, most of them included. And June means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. All told, 5 ports across 7 nights covers a lot.
