Southern Spain Winter Escapes


Cruise overview
Walk in the shadows of Gaudi’s architectural splendors and sip decadent Spanish red wines paired with savory tapas during an overnight stay near the heart of Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter. Master the toasty, crackling craft of perfect socarrat as you cook up paella from regional ingredients at an exclusive cooking class hosted in a Malaga home. An inviting coastal city, Malaga enjoys the warmest winter weather in Europe, so it’s likely that you’ll sample regional wines and local delicacies like pescaíto frito–fried fish–comfortably seated at outdoor cafes. Wander Alcazaba Fortress’s ancient halls and fortifications dating back to the 11th Century. Delightfully dawdle in roomy galleries adorned with a half century of Pablo Picasso’s paintings, drawings, sculptures, and ceramics. Rise to the airy heights of the formidable British stronghold at Gibraltar, where you’ll gaze out across one of the world’s busiest channels to North Africa’s distant mountains.Looking for more?

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.
