Mediterranean Riviera – Cannes, Genoa & Rome

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 Barcelona on August 8, 2026 visits Cannes, Genoa, La Spezia, Civitavecchia (Rome) and Palma de Mallorca. 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 Spain. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Palma de Mallorca, A Gothic cathedral mirrored in the harbour. Roughly 11 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, MSC Grandiosa has 6 dining spots on board, most of them included. And August means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
