Mediterranean Marvels – Riviera & Rome

About this cruise

There's a reason 7-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Marseille on July 2, 2026 and visits Tarragona, Valencia, Livorno (Florence/Pisa), Civitavecchia (Rome) and Genoa. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. Hot coastline, hilltop villages, and very good food. That's the Western Med in a sentence. You get around 11 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, MSC Orchestra has 5 dining spots on board, most of them included. A July departure puts you in the best summer conditions: long days, warm nights, plenty of sun. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
