Moorish Lanterns – Lisbon, Tangier & Cádiz
About this cruise
You won't run out of things to do on a trip this long, but you also won't feel like you have to do any of them. 12 nights from Marseille on May 3, 2027, visiting Genoa, Barcelona and Alicante, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. The route threads through 4 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: Italy, Spain, Portugal and Morocco. Most ports give you about 9 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Costa Serena: 3,014 guests, 13 decks. Entertainment, dining, and enough space that it never feels cramped. By night three you start recognising faces; by night ten you're swapping numbers. That's the magic of a longer sailing. A spring departure helps too: decent weather and a calmer feel at each port. 12 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.
