Oceanic Thread – Madeira, San Juan & Miami
About this cruise
A trip this long changes your rhythm entirely, and that's very much the point. 19 nights from Marseille on October 25, 2026, visiting Genoa, La Spezia and Civitavecchia (Rome), with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. You finish in Miami. The final stretch is open ocean, which gives you time to process everything you've seen and use the ship one last time. 5 countries (Italy, Spain, Portugal, Puerto Rico and United States) across the Western Mediterranean, each with its own character. You get around 11 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, You won't go hungry on MSC Grandiosa. 1 restaurants come with the fare, plus 5 more when you feel like treating yourself. Longer sailings have a different energy. People relax into it, stop rushing, and start actually talking to each other. An October sailing dodges the peak crowds while the weather is still cooperating. Well timed. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
