Mediterranean Marvels – Marseille & Malta

About this cruise

There's a reason 7-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Barcelona on March 13, 2026 and visits Marseille, Genoa, Civitavecchia (Rome), Messina and Valletta. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. 3 countries (France, Italy and Malta) across the Western Mediterranean, each with its own character. You get around 9 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, You won't go hungry on MSC World Europa. 4 restaurants come with the fare, plus 5 more when you feel like treating yourself. A March departure catches that sweet window of warm-enough weather before the summer rush. 7 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.
