South Atlantic to Italy – Rio & Barcelona

About this cruise

A 19-night sailing gives you something shorter trips can't: the feeling that you're not just visiting places but actually living somewhere else for a while. This one leaves Santos on March 14, 2027 and visits Rio de Janeiro, Salvador and Maceio, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. Disembarkation is in Civitavecchia (Rome). 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 5 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: Brazil, Spain, Morocco, United Kingdom and Italy. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Rio de Janeiro, Samba, Sugarloaf, and Copacabana's curve. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. MSC Divina has 6 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. The longer time on board means you'll catch several shows, themed nights, and start feeling like a regular at your favourite bar. Santos 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. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
