Cruise Itinerary
The Celebrity XCel sails on July 25, 2026 for a 7 Night Italy Spain & French Riviera (Barcelona Roundtrip). The ship will depart the port of Barcelona, Spain at 5:00 PM and will return to the port of Barcelona, Spain on Aug 1st at 5:00 AM. During the 8-day journey, the Celebrity XCel will visit 5 additional ports and will spend 1 days at sea.
Barcelona is the cultural heartland of Spain, yet its first language is Catalan, the native tongue of the proudly independent Catalonia region. Stroll down the shady, tree-lined Ramblas between street musicians and elegant bistros. Then perhaps visit the venerable Gothic cathedral, Picasso Museum or enjoy the architectural genius of Antonio Gaudi's Church of the Holy Family.
Nice, the pearl of the French Riviera, is a busy commercial city and the capital of the Alpes Maritimes department. Nonetheless, beauty, a fine climate and affable citizens keep its charm and year around appeal intact. The cuisine, like the city, is cosmopolitan, Mediterranean and delightful.
Find out why this region was so popular with writers Ezra Pound, Lord Byron, Shelley and his wife Mary, and Hemingway. Located just north of Genoa in northern Italy, Santa Margherita Ligure is marked by rocky coves, pebbly beaches, and olive tree-covered hillsides. It also serves as the gateway to the beautiful Ligurian coastline.
Civitavecchia is just moments from Rome, Italy's Eternal City. One of the most geographically perfect ports in the world, Civitavecchia boasts a number of compelling area attractions. Stroll through the streets of the medieval town of Tarquinia. View the resplendent Madonnina at the Resort of Pantano.
One of the most spectacular bays in the world lies in the shadow of Mt. Vesuvius. Visit the San Carlo Opera House and the cathedral of San Janarious, or tour the ancient ruins in the Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum.
Take advantage of the many on board activites during your day at sea. You'll have more than enough to fill your day!
