Cruise Description

The Marvelous Med

The magical Med is yours to explore on this 10-night voyage aboard Azamara Onward. Begin in the Eternal City of Rome before cruising to Livorno, the gateway to Florence and Pisa. Visit the grottoes that inspired Lord Byron in Portovenere then arrive in chic Nice for the last of four late stays in a row.  

An overnight in brilliant Barcelona is next—a beautiful, bustling city home to dynamic architecture and artistic treasures. On the island of Majorca, Palma is a modern city with an ancient past. Spend a day at sea soaking the luxuries of life on board, then make your way to the top of the Rock of Gibraltar (be it by cable car or foot) for stunning views, keeping your eyes peeled for wild Barbary macaques along the way. Conclude your Mediterranean cruise with an overnight in Lisbon, the colorful, historic heart of Portugal.
