Sun-Drenched Stones – Valencia, Marseille & Florence

About this cruise

You sail from Civitavecchia (Rome) on November 25, 2027 and spend 7 nights visiting Valencia, Barcelona, Marseille, Genoa and Livorno (Florence/Pisa). It's a well-tested route and there's a reason people keep booking it. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. 3 countries (Spain, France and Italy) across the Western Mediterranean, each with its own character. Most ports give you about 11 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, You won't go hungry on MSC Lirica. 4 restaurants come with the fare, plus 1 more when you feel like treating yourself. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. Good route, good ship, good timing. It all lines up.
