Cruise overview
Embark on a captivating cruise from Lisbon, capital of Portugal, to the shores of Britain, exploring the coast of France along the way. Our first stop is beautiful Porto, to raise a glass to the city’s eponymous wine on an excursion along the River Douro. We cross the border to the Spanish city of A Coruña to walk the pretty streets of its historic heart. Relax as we spend a day at sea heading to France and Bordeaux. Here, we will spend two memorable days sipping world-class wines cultivated in big-name vineyards around the city, including in the medieval village of Saint-Emilion. Next, wander the 17th-century arcaded streets of La Rochelle and explore the maritime history of Brest, before we reach St Peter Port, a charming cobbled town on the Channel Island of Guernsey. We return briefly to the French mainland at Honfleur – visit the wooden church with nautical references – then cross the English Channel to Cowes, on the Isle of Wight, where Queen Victoria used to holiday. Seafaring tales and one of Henry VIII’s ships, Mary Rose, await our arrival at Portsmouth.
Itinerary
Lisbon
Set on seven hills on the banks of the River Tagus, Lisbon has been the capital of Portugal since the 13th century. It is a city famous for its majestic architecture, old wooden trams, Moorish features and more than twenty centuries of history. Following disastrous earthquakes in the 18th century, Lisbon was rebuilt by the Marques de Pombal who created an elegant city with wide boulevards and a great riverfront and square, Praça do Comércio. Today there are distinct modern and ancient sections, combining great shopping with culture and sightseeing in the Old Town, built on the city’s terraced hillsides. The distance between the ship and your tour vehicle may vary. This distance is not included in the excursion grades.
