Mediterranean Magic – Rome, Sicily & Barcelona

About this cruise

You board in Civitavecchia (Rome) on July 19, 2026 for 7 nights visiting Palermo, Ibiza, Barcelona, Marseille and Genoa, and you come back from this kind of trip wondering why you don't do it more often. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Crossing 3 borders through the Western Mediterranean: Italy, Spain and France. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Marseille stands out. It's France's oldest city, salty and soulful. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. MSC Seaview takes the food seriously, with 6 restaurants to choose from. 2 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. All in all, it's a solid trip.
