Civitavecchia (Rome) to Barcelona

Cruise overview

This voyage along the coasts of Italy, France, and Spain offers a taste of Mediterranean living at its finest. Bidding farewell to the cultural riches of Rome, we sail north to the Tuscan port of Livorno, from where you can take trips to the world-leading museums and galleries of Florence, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, or the famed vineyards of Chianti. Next, Villefranche-sur-Mer introduces us to France’s Cote d’Azur, with pristine beaches and 16th-century churches to admire, before it’s time to don our chicest outfit for a stroll around one of Europe’s most glamorous destinations, Saint Tropez, where a glass of rosé overlooking the water is a must. After a relaxing day at sea we reach Port-Vendres, a pretty fishing village in southeastern France, and then we cross into Spain, for stops in Menorca to explore the lovely whitewashed streets of Mahón, and Palma de Mallorca, which offers world-class restaurants, excellent shopping, and impressive architecture. Finally, we arrive in Barcelona, where we have an overnight before our voyage ends, to allow you plenty of time to admire Gaudí’s masterpieces, soak up the vibe at one of the city beaches, and hop between the tapas bars of the Gothic Quarter.
