Nomad's Horizon – Mindelo & Barcelona
About this cruise
The kind of trip where you lose track of what day it is, and nobody cares. 19 nights from Cape Town on March 24, 2027, visiting Walvis Bay, Mindelo, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Barcelona, Marseille and Genoa. You get off in Genoa, which is a good excuse to tack on a few days on land. The first couple of days are at sea, which gives you time to settle in and get to know the ship before the ports begin. The Western Mediterranean route takes in Namibia, Cape Verde, Spain, France and Italy, 5 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. 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 Deliziosa carries 2,260 guests across 12 decks, with the usual resort-style amenities. 19 nights is long enough to build a routine on board: favourite restaurant, favourite deck chair, favourite people. It starts to feel like a floating village. A proper voyage for people who like to take their time and hate rushing through destinations. A spring departure helps too: decent weather and a calmer feel at each port. 19 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.

Getting there: out to Cape Town, home from Genoa
