This vibrant seaside city is home to unforgettable architecture and creative scenes from renowned artists. The buildings you’ll find here are unlike anything you’ve ever seen, such as Park Güell and Casa Batllo, while foodies will be spoilt for choice with 20 different Michelin-star restaurants. At the end of a busy day of shopping, enjoy the energetic nightlife, or relax on the beach with newfound friends. Whatever your interests, Barcelona has the perfect itinerary for you.
On the coast of the largest Balearic island, this sun-soaked seaside city dates back to the 13th-century and is a must visit for any adventurer. A simple stroll will take you on a journey back in time, past breath-taking architecture, medieval history, bustling markets and to an endless array of authentic eateries. With so many hidden gems amongst iconic landmarks, places like Casa Antiguo are the best bet for a true taste of Palma culture.
After diverting its flood-prone river to the outskirts of the city and converting the remaining riverbed into a flourishing park, Valencia has quickly become a tourist hotspot in Spain. Ever the innovative, it combines traditional Spanish charm with futuristic buildings and districts, such as the City of the Arts and Sciences. Whether you’re here to immerse yourself in the culture or for the sun, sand and sea, you’ll love Valencia.
A stunning seaside town in Spain’s sunny Costa Tropical, Motril is a sensational Mediterranean destination with something for every type of holidaymaker to enjoy when they disembark. With welcoming waters and sandy beaches at Playa de Torrenueva, Playa de Granada, and Playa de las Azucenas (just to name a few), you’ll have no trouble finding somewhere to soak up the sunshine if you’re looking for a beach day. Motril is also home to some sensational restaurants and boutique shopping experiences, with an interesting pre-industrial museum to boot. However, this port of call is also an excellent gateway to Granada – one of Spain’s most storied cities and an urban centre overflowing with incredible culture, cuisine, and historic landmarks. That, and a gorgeous dramatic backdrop afforded by the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Under an hour away from Motril, Granada boasts numerous breathtaking UNESCO World Heritage Sites steeped in history, a variety of colourful shops to explore, and some of Spain’s best restaurants – the perfect place to indulge in some authentic Spanish cuisine. However you decide to spend your time in this stunning slice of southern Spain, you’re in for a real treat.
Nestled between Spain and Morocco, this small piece of Britain offers a warmer climate and Europe’s only wild apes. Visitors of all ages will love watching these primates at play, as well as hiking the trails through the Upper Rock Nature Reserve where you’ll find Saint Michael’s Cave. Finally, don’t forget to leave time to enjoy your favourite British classics at the numerous pubs, or try traditional Spanish tapas.
Despite its impressive modernity as a major city, Cádiz is one of the oldest continually-inhabited cities in Western Europe and an urban centre dominated by well-preserved historical landmarks – most of which can be found in Casco Antiguo, the Old Town within the remnants of Cádiz’s city walls. That doesn’t mean you won’t find any modern comforts here, though; while you’re sightseeing, you can expect to enjoy flavourful food from fantastic restaurants, comfortable cafes, and more. Sitting on Spain’s southern coast, the Port of Cádiz is also a short trip from Seville – a stunning Spanish city boasting its own unique culture and unique historical landmarks. So, if a tour of Seville is on the agenda, you’ll have no trouble getting there and back when you disembark here.

Portimão is an idyllic destination on the sun-kissed Algarve coastline and a stunning holiday hotspot to visit when cruising southern Portugal. Boasting a bustling waterfront with a picturesque promenade and a charming city centre with vibrant parks and interesting attractions, there’s so much to enjoy when you arrive. The golden-sand beaches here, though, might just be some of the best in the country; bordering sparkling blue waters and surrounded by dramatic rock formations, they’re the perfect place to kick back and soak up the glorious sunshine when you disembark. Overlooking the Arade River, the Museu de Portimão is also worth visiting when exploring the city – it explores this city’s unique industrial history alongside artifacts from several land and underwater archeological sites. A stunningly beautiful part of the world, a port stop at Portimão promises to be one to remember.
The largest and capital city of Portugal, and one of the oldest cities in the world, Lisbon is an idyllic cruise holiday destination, offering attractions to suit all interests. From ancient forts to artistic neighbourhoods and the breath-taking Jerónimos Monastery, this port of call has plenty to explore. Families will love to discover the many species at the Oceanarium, while couples will love an escape to the charming town of Sintra to explore the castle.
The adventure continues, and it’s time to travel from one destination to the next! At this stage of your journey, you’ll transfer between destinations.
