Volcanic Wake – Naples, Messina & Valletta
About this cruise
You sail from Barcelona on June 23, 2028 and spend 7 nights visiting Marseille, Genoa, Naples, Messina and Valletta. 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. The route threads through 3 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: France, Italy and Malta. As for the ship itself, MSC World Asia launched in 2026, so everything on board is still new. You can tell. It's peak season, so the weather is at its best and the ship will be full. That's part of the fun. You start in Barcelona and come back with stories from France, Italy and Malta.

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.
