Sun-Drenched Stones – Barcelona & Rome
About this cruise
You leave Marseille on November 8, 2026 and come back 4 nights later with a tan and a few good stories. The route visits Barcelona, Civitavecchia (Rome) and Genoa. Disembarkation is in Genoa. Every morning brings a new view out of the window. You barely have time to get comfortable on board before the next port appears. Roman ruins at one stop, Renaissance piazzas at the next. Centuries of history at every quay. You get around 10 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Costa Smeralda holds 5,224 guests across 20 decks. It's a big ship, with plenty to keep you busy. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. A November sailing dodges the peak crowds while the weather is still cooperating. Well timed. You start in Marseille and come back with stories from Spain and Italy.
