Olive & Ocean – Riviera & Rome

About this cruise

This one leaves Marseille on May 28, 2026 and spends 7 nights visiting Tarragona, Valencia, Livorno (Florence/Pisa), Civitavecchia (Rome) and Genoa at a pace where every day has something going on but there's always time to just sit and watch the water too. 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. Hot coastline, hilltop villages, and very good food. That's the Western Med in a sentence. Most ports give you about 11 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, MSC Orchestra has 5 dining spots on board, most of them included. A spring departure helps too: decent weather and a calmer feel at each port. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
