Mediterranean Marvels – Marseille, Barcelona & Palermo

About this cruise

No complicated itinerary, no back-to-back transfers, just the ports, the ship, and the sea in between. This 7-night sailing from Livorno (Florence/Pisa) on May 16, 2027 visits Marseille, Barcelona, La Goulette (Tunis), Palermo and Naples. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. It's a proper Western Mediterranean tour: 4 countries, from France to Italy. La Goulette (Tunis) alone is worth the trip, Gateway to Carthage and the Tunis medina. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, MSC Virtuosa has 7 dining spots on board, most of them included. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. Worth booking. That's the short version.
