Sun-Drenched Stones – Barcelona, Rome & Genoa
About this cruise
The kind of trip that's easy to say yes to and hard to regret. 7 nights from Marseille on July 25, 2026, visiting Barcelona, Cagliari, Naples, Civitavecchia (Rome) and Genoa. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 5 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. Roman ruins at one stop, Renaissance piazzas at the next. Centuries of history at every quay. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Genoa, Columbus' birthplace, a labyrinth of caruggi. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Costa Toscana carries up to 5,322 guests over 20 decks. Multiple pools, a theatre, and more restaurants than you'll get through. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. If you can, add a night in Marseille before boarding. It's a good city to wander. And July means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
