Explora II sails this route from the Port of Barcelona twice in the window we track. Each one runs 9 nights. It finishes in Civitavecchia (Italy) rather than back in Barcelona, so check flights home before you book.

Every sailing calls at Palma de Mallorca (Spain), Villefranche (France), and Livorno (Italy). The other ports change with the date: there are 2 port combinations, each listed below with its own departure dates. We record which ports a sailing visits, not the order it visits them in.

Departures run from Sun, Jan 24, 2027 to Mon, May 22, 2028. The cheapest recorded starting fare is $4,170 per person, which works out at $463 a night.

Our Mediterranean guide covers which Italian, French and Greek ports each length of cruise reaches, and how the lines differ.
