Mediterranean Marvels – Marseille & Malta
About this cruise
The kind of trip that's easy to say yes to and hard to regret. 7 nights from Barcelona on February 12, 2027, visiting Marseille, Genoa, Civitavecchia (Rome), Messina and Valletta. 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 France to Malta. Messina stands out. It's Sicily's gateway to Mount Etna and Taormina. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. MSC World Asia (2026) is one of the newer ships out there, with current design and recent tech throughout. And a February cruise to warmer water? Hard to argue with that when it's cold at home. All in all, it's a solid trip.
