About This Cruise
The 17 Night Transatlantic From Barcelona to Galveston: Spain, Portugal, Dominican Republic & Jamaica is a 17-night one-way itinerary aboard Norwegian Viva. You board in Barcelona and disembark in Galveston, calling at 9 ports across 6 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in Spain (Barcelona, Alicante, Motril), Madeira (Funchal), St. Maarten (Philipsburg), Dominican Republic (La Romana, Cabo Rojo), Jamaica (Falmouth) and Texas (Galveston).
As a one-way sailing you'll fly into Barcelona and home from Galveston, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book. Longer hops are crossed on the 9 days at sea, keeping daylight hours for the ports. Sailing dates, cabin availability and fares vary by season — use Check Dates & Prices for live pricing, or call our team to talk through the options.
