Mediterranean to Caribbean – Rome, Barcelona & St. Maarten
About this cruise
You come back from a trip like this actually rested, not just "I went on vacation" rested. 25 nights from Civitavecchia (Rome) on October 29, 2026, visiting Livorno (Florence/Pisa), Genoa and Marseille, with additional stops along the Caribbean. The trip wraps in La Romana, so you won't retrace your steps. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 14 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. It's a proper Caribbean tour: 12 countries, from Italy to British Virgin Islands. Keep an eye out for Pointe-à-Pitre: Guadeloupe's butterfly-shaped wonder. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, MSC Opera has 4 dining spots on board, most of them included. With more nights comes more time for the ship's rhythm to kick in: morning coffee in the same spot, evening shows, late-night conversations on deck. And October is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. That's 25 nights well spent.
