Quill & Quarry – Florence, Rome & Barcelona

About this cruise

There's a reason 7-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Genoa on November 10, 2026 and visits Livorno (Florence/Pisa), Civitavecchia (Rome), Valencia, Barcelona and Marseille. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. The route threads through 3 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: Italy, Spain and France. 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, MSC Sinfonia has 4 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. A November sailing dodges the peak crowds while the weather is still cooperating. Well timed. Hard to ask for much more than that, honestly.
