Star Collector: Canaries, Casablanca & the Costa del Sol


Cruise overview
Tour the best of Iberia on this voyage to the Canary Islands and beyond. In Portugal, even large cities feel warm and inviting, historic buildings softened by bougainvillea and sidewalks decorated with tiles. Walk the quays of Portimao where the town’s famous sardines are grilled for passersby, and explore Funchal with its farmers market and wicker sleigh rides. You’ll find natural wonders everywhere in the Canary Islands; UNESCO Biosphere Reserves, Marine Reserves and even Starlight Reserves, and learn why so many artists — Picasso, Miró, Dalí, Gaudí — found inspiration here. Tour the Alhambra, the White Villages and Modernist creations like Barcelona’s Sagrada Familia. Not to mention Costa del Sol shores, tasty tapas and, of course, flamenco. Enjoy intermissions from your Iberian adventures in Casablanca and Gibraltar with time to shop the casbah and visit the Barbary Apes.
Itinerary
Santa Cruz de Tenerife
The largest of the Canary Islands, Tenerife is a beautiful and scenic island which enjoys year-round sunshine and is dominated by Mount Teide. The mountain range runs through the centre of the island, with fertile valleys on the northern side. In the central part of the range is the gigantic natural crater of the Cañadas del Teide, about 14 miles in diameter. Santa Cruz, the island’s pretty capital, was originally a small fishing village but has now grown into a modern city, and also contains 16th-century civic buildings and ornate private mansions. Near the pier is the Santa Cruz Palmetum, a Botanical Garden covering an area of 29 acres, specialising in palms.
