Cruise overview

Some experiences are just too good to rush, and this voyage to Northern Spain, Portugal, and Bordeaux is one of them. That’s why our thoughtfully planned itinerary includes long days in port and overnight stays — time to savor the very best of this bountiful region. Taste Galicia’s legendary seafood fresh from the Bay of Biscay, sample port within sight of the Douro River in Porto, share pintxos with new Basque friends, and wine and dine amid French vineyards on the “hill with a thousand chateaux.” When you’re not busy pampering your palate, delve into the fascinating history of this region. There are ancient Roman baths in Gijon, medieval Old Towns, and countless modern wonders like Portugal’s stunning, multicolored Pena Palace and the iconic Guggenheim in Bilbao.

Itinerary

Day 1

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.
