Share

Book your cabin on the MSC Lirica and get ready for twelve nights of refreshing travel on the Mediterranean from Venice to Bari!

Stopping at extremely rare stops such as Port Said, Limassol, and Alexandria makes this trip particularly exciting. This route is an interesting one for the Lirica. In fact, this is the only time it's going to sail it!

We include all all entertainment, meals, taxes, and port fees in this price, so there are no sneaky extra fees. Coming in at under $135 per day, this represents a solid deal.
