Lisbon
Welcome to Lisbon, the colourful capital of Portugal and a city with a proud seafaring history. Be immersed in its cobbled alleyways, ancient ruins and white-domed cathedrals.
This afternoon you’ll board your ultra-luxury Discovery Yacht, Scenic Eclipse II. You’ll be warmly welcomed by the Captain and crew. Meet your butler and settle in your spacious suite. Join your fellow guests at the Observation Deck for a glass of Champagne to toast the start of your fascinating exploration of Western Europe.
Please book your flight to arrive into Lisbon prior to 02:00 PM.
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.
