Mediterranean Marvels – Marseille, Barcelona & Palermo

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 Livorno (Florence/Pisa) on July 19, 2026 visits Marseille, Barcelona, La Goulette (Tunis), Palermo and Naples. 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 4 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: France, Spain, Tunisia and Italy. Keep an eye out for Barcelona: Where Gothic grandeur meets avant-garde genius. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. There are 9 restaurants on MSC Meraviglia, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 7 nights. Livorno (Florence/Pisa) itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. And July means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. That's 7 nights well spent.
