Timeless Mediterranean Odyssey – Dubrovnik & Barcelona

About this cruise

There's a reason 9-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Ravenna on July 21, 2027 and visits Dubrovnik, Kotor and Salerno, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. Disembarkation is in Barcelona. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. The Western Mediterranean route takes in Croatia, Montenegro, Italy, France and Spain, 5 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. You get around 11 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Norwegian Viva (2023) is one of the newer ships out there, with current design and recent tech throughout. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. A July departure puts you in the best summer conditions: long days, warm nights, plenty of sun. You start in Ravenna and come back with stories from Croatia, Montenegro, Italy, France and Spain.
