Ocean Discovery – Marseille, Savona & Civitavecchia (Rome)
About this cruise
No complicated itinerary, no back-to-back transfers, just the ports, the ship, and the sea in between. This 8-night sailing from Marseille on May 29, 2027 visits Genoa, Civitavecchia (Rome) and Naples, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. The trip wraps in Taranto, so you won't retrace your steps. No sea days at all on this one. 8 ports, one after another. Pack accordingly. Warm plazas, gelato by the harbour, and old things everywhere you look. Keep an eye out for Palermo: Arab-Norman splendour in Sicily's capital. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. At 114,147 gross tons, Costa Serena is big enough that you can find a quiet corner or a crowd, depending on your mood. Marseille itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. That's 8 nights well spent.

Getting there: out to Marseille, home from Taranto
This cruise does not return to Marseille. It ends in Taranto, so your flight home leaves from there.
