Seaside Serenade – Rome, Ibiza & Marseille

About this cruise

You board in Cagliari on April 26, 2026 for 7 nights visiting Civitavecchia (Rome), Genoa, Marseille, Valencia and Ibiza, and you come back from this kind of trip wondering why you don't do it more often. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. The route threads through 3 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: Italy, France and Spain. Don't rush through Marseille, which is known as France's oldest city, salty and soulful. Around 11 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. MSC Musica has 4 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. Cagliari 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. All told, 5 ports across 7 nights covers a lot.
