About this cruise

Clear the calendar from January 5, 2027. This one's 121 nights from Genoa, and the route visits Marseille, Barcelona and Gibraltar, with additional stops along the Australia & New Zealand. By the time you're a week in, you'll have completely stopped checking your phone. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. It's a proper Australia & New Zealand tour: 25 countries, from France to Italy. You get around 10 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 Magnifica has 4 dining spots on board, most of them included. One of the underrated parts of a longer cruise: you actually get to know people. The couple from dinner, the group at trivia, the bartender who remembers your drink. While everyone else deals with the January cold, you'll be somewhere warmer. And floating. You start in Genoa and come back with stories from France, Spain, United Kingdom, Morocco, Cape Verde, Brazil, Argentina, Falkland Islands (Islas Malvinas), Chile, Pitcairn Islands, French Polynesia, Cook Islands, New Zealand, Australia, New Caledonia, Vanuatu, Samoa, United States, Mexico, Costa Rica, Panama, Dominican Republic, British Virgin Islands, Netherlands and Italy.
