About this cruise

Somewhere around day five the ship stops being transport and starts being home. This 14-night sailing from Southampton on May 29, 2027 visits Gijon, La Rochelle and Bilbao, with additional stops along the British Isles & Western France. 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 British Isles & Western France coast: Spain, France, United Kingdom and Norway. Most ports give you about 9 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, MSC Meraviglia has 9 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. 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. If you've been thinking about a cruise, this 14-night sailing is a strong place to start.

Where to book

View on official site

The price above matches MSC Cruises's USD site. MSC Cruises prices every country separately, so the others may show something different.

Each MSC Cruises site only sells to people living in the region it serves. Agencies sell across markets, so this fare is often still bookable through one. See who sells it

We added MSC Cruises's mandatory service charge to the prices above, so they show the real total. MSC Cruises bills it on board rather than in the fare, so their own site will quote you less.
