About This Cruise
The 18 Night MSC Grand Voyages is a 18-night one-way itinerary aboard MSC Opera. You board in Civitavecchia (Rome) and disembark in La Romana, calling at 15 ports across 12 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in Italy (Civitavecchia, Genoa, Livorno), France (Marseille), Spain (Barcelona), Morocco (Tangier), Antigua (St Johns), St. Maarten (Philipsburg) and 2 more, among others.
As a one-way sailing you'll fly into Civitavecchia (Rome) and home from La Romana, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book. Longer hops are crossed on the 10 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.
