Timeless Mediterranean – Barcelona & Rome
About this cruise
A week or so at sea, a few great ports, and nothing to organise once you're on board. This 10-night sailing from Marseille on December 7, 2026 visits Barcelona, Cádiz and Casablanca, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 7 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. It's a proper Western Mediterranean tour: 3 countries, from Spain to Italy. People come back from this cruise talking about Civitavecchia (Rome): The Eternal City is just an hour away. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, MSC Magnifica has 4 dining spots on board, most of them included. With more nights comes more time for the ship's rhythm to kick in: morning coffee in the same spot, evening shows, late-night conversations on deck. And a December cruise to warmer water? Hard to argue with that when it's cold at home. 7 ports, 3 countries, one suitcase. That's the appeal.

The price above matches MSC Cruises's USD site. MSC Cruises prices every country separately, so the others may show something different.
We added MSC Cruises's mandatory service charge to the prices above, so they show the real total. MSC Cruises bills it on board rather than in the fare, so their own site will quote you less.
