Topaz Harbor – Riviera, Naples & Sicily
About this cruise
You board in Marseille on August 8, 2026 for 7 nights visiting Genoa, Naples, Messina, Valletta and Barcelona, 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. Crossing 3 borders through the Western Mediterranean: Italy, Malta and Spain. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Valletta, A fortress city of honey-coloured stone. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. MSC World Europa takes the food seriously, with 9 restaurants to choose from. 4 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
