26 May '26Cruise overview
Impressionist artists like Monet and Renoir spent a lifetime trying to capture the beauty and soul of western France. It took Julia Child just one meal in Normandy to fall in love with French cuisine. And this is just one of the alluring regions you’ll visit on this sensory journey to Northern Spain and France. Follow the Comino to the cathedral at Santiago de Compostela, a pilgrimage site for a thousand years. Sip cider in Gijon at the heart of “Green Spain,” a place even many Spaniards are unfamiliar with. And treat your palate to Basque cuisine that is neither Spanish nor French but something else entirely. You’ll see hills covered in vineyards and chateaux in Bordeaux, Monet’s famous water lilies in Giverny, Mont St. Michel abbey perched on a tiny island like a wedding cake ornament, and as many Parisian wonders as you can absorb with a two-night stay in Rouen. Delicious. Moving. Awe-inspiring. This voyage is all that and more.
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.
