Barcelona to Lisbon
10 nights
Crystal Grace
5 Sep '28Cruise overview
Fewer crowds and mild temperatures make early fall an ideal time to explore the marvelous Mediterranean. Our 10-night journey departs from Barcelona, calling first at pretty Mahón on the Spanish island of Menorca, before we enter French waters at Ajaccio in Corsica, Napoleon’s birthplace. Italy is up next: discover the medieval villages and white-sand beaches of Cagliari on the island of Sardinia, followed by the cultural gems of Palermo, Sicily’s cosmopolitan capital. From La Goulette in Tunisia, explore the ruins of the ancient city of Carthage. A day at sea brings the chance to acquaint yourself with Crystal Grace’s sophisticated features and expansive suites, before we arrive in the Spanish enclave of Melilla, with its fort and secret tunnels. The enigmatic North African city of Tangier and the glorious beaches of Portimão in Portugal follow before our journey ends in lovely Lisbon.
Itinerary
Barcelona
The infinite variety of street life, the nooks and crannies of the medieval Barri Gòtic, the ceramic tile and stained glass of Art Nouveau facades, the art and music, the throb of street life, the food (ah, the food!)—one way or another, Barcelona will find a way to get your full attention. The capital of Catalonia is a banquet for the senses, with its beguiling mix of ancient and modern architecture, tempting cafés and markets, and sun-drenched Mediterranean beaches. A stroll along La Rambla and through waterfront Barceloneta, as well as a tour of Gaudí’s majestic Sagrada Famíliaand his other unique creations, are part of a visit to Spain’s second-largest city. Modern art museums and chic shops call for attention, too. Barcelona’s vibe stays lively well into the night, when you can linger over regional wine and cuisine at buzzing tapas bars.
