Sunlit Flagstone – Cagliari, Rome & Marseille
About this cruise
You board in Barcelona on October 3, 2027 for 7 nights visiting Cagliari, Naples, Civitavecchia (Rome), Genoa and Marseille, and you come back from this kind of trip wondering why you don't do it more often. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Warm plazas, gelato by the harbour, and old things everywhere you look. Genoa alone is worth the trip, Columbus' birthplace, a labyrinth of caruggi. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. At 185,010 gross tons, Costa Smeralda is big enough that you can find a quiet corner or a crowd, depending on your mood. Barcelona itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. Worth booking. That's the short version.
