Saffron & Moorish Walls – Casablanca & Cádiz

About this cruise

10 nights is that sweet spot where you actually start to relax. This sailing from Marseille on December 17, 2027 visits Tarragona, Cádiz and Casablanca, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean and doesn't try to cram in too much. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. It's a proper Western Mediterranean tour: 3 countries, from Spain to Italy. Keep an eye out for Alicante: A castle-topped city on the Costa Blanca. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, MSC Magnifica has 4 dining spots on board, most of them included. There are enough performances, events, and social mixers on a cruise this length that you couldn't do them all if you tried. And that's a good problem. A December sailing is basically an excuse to chase the sun for a week or two. That's 10 nights well spent.
