Sun-Bleached Ochre – Ibiza, Rome & Marseille

About this cruise

No complicated itinerary, no back-to-back transfers, just the ports, the ship, and the sea in between. This 7-night sailing from Genoa on May 12, 2026 visits Marseille, Valencia, Ibiza, Cagliari and 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. It's a proper Western Mediterranean tour: 3 countries, from France to Italy. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Cagliari, Sardinia's sun-bleached capital of flamingos and fortresses. 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 Musica has 4 dining spots on board, most of them included. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
