Mediterranean Magic – Rome, Sicily & Barcelona

About this cruise

Long enough to properly switch off but not so long you need to reorganise your entire life. This 7-night round-trip sailing from Civitavecchia (Rome) on September 27, 2026 visits Palermo, Ibiza, Barcelona, Marseille and Genoa. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 5 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. The route threads through 3 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: Italy, Spain and France. Don't rush through Marseille, which is known as France's oldest city, salty and soulful. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. MSC Seaview has 6 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. Civitavecchia (Rome) itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. And September is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. All told, 5 ports across 7 nights covers a lot.
