Highlights
Embark on a captivating 7‑night voyage aboard MSC World Asia, the stunning new World‑Class ship bringing contemporary design and Asian‑inspired elegance to the Mediterranean. Begin in Barcelona, where Catalan creativity and a vibrant waterfront set the stage for your travels. In Marseille, wander historic neighbourhoods, savour Provençal cuisine, or venture to the breathtaking Calanques. The journey continues to Genoa, home to medieval architecture, grand maritime history, and the picturesque gateway to Portofino. From Civitavecchia, explore Rome’s extraordinary cultural legacy—from ancient empire to artistic renaissance—before heading to Messina, a Sicilian port alive with mythology, coastal beauty, and access to Taormina’s enchanting hilltop setting. Arriving in Valletta, you’ll step into Malta’s living museum of fortresses, palaces, and panoramic harbours. Returning to Barcelona, this voyage blends iconic Mediterranean highlights with the modern comforts, immersive entertainment, and global dining that define MSC World Asia.
