The Route

Portimão
-
SAT · 13 Nov 2027Lissabon · EmbarkationDeparture 18:00
Built on seven hills, Lisbon blends a southern European sense of life with a great history of discovery. From the Tower of Belém, Vasco da Gama and other navigators set out into the unknown - yellow trams and the melancholic Fado still tell the tale today.
-
SUN · 14 Nov 2027Oporto (Leixões)Arrival 09:00 Departure 18:00
About five kilometres north-west of the centre of Porto lies Leixões as the main port of northern Portugal on the Atlantic. From the deepwater harbour visitors reach Porto's old town, the UNESCO-listed Ribeira with the Dom Luís I bridge by Téophile Seyrig and the famous port wine cellars of Vila Nova de Gaia on the southern bank of the Douro.
-
MON · 15 Nov 2027Vigo (Galicien)Arrival 08:00 Departure 18:00
Vigo is Spain's largest fishing port and gateway to Galicia. The Cíes Islands off the coast (Atlantic Islands of Galicia National Park) are among the most pristine beaches in Europe; the pilgrim city of Santiago de Compostela is one hour away.

WED · 17 Nov 2027CádizArrival 08:00 Departure 18:00
Cádiz is regarded as the longest continuously inhabited city in western Europe (founded by the Phoenicians around 1,100 BC). The "tacita de plata" (silver cup) lies on a peninsula in the Atlantic - golden La Caleta beach, old city walls and the largest cathedral in Andalusia.
-
THU · 18 Nov 2027CasablancaArrival 08:00 Departure 18:00
Casablanca is Morocco's economic heart. The Hassan II Mosque on the Atlantic (one of the tallest minarets in the world at 210 m), the Art Deco architecture of the city centre and the charm of the Quartier Habous make Casablanca North Africa's most modern city.
-
FRI · 19 Nov 2027TangierArrival 08:00 Departure 19:00
Tangier sits on the Strait of Gibraltar, where the Atlantic and the Mediterranean meet. The medina with its narrow lanes, the kasbah above the harbour and the unique play of light between two continents drew painters such as Henri Matisse here.
-
SAT · 20 Nov 2027Malaga (Costa del Sol)Arrival 08:00 Departure 23:00
Málaga on the Costa del Sol was once a Phoenician trading port and is today one of the most dynamic cultural cities in Andalusia. The Alcazaba fortress, the Picasso Museum (Picasso was born here) and the historic cathedral define the cityscape.

MON · 22 Nov 2027PortimãoArrival 08:00 Departure 18:00
Portimão on the Algarve was a Phoenician settlement and is today one of Portugal's best-known sardine-grilling spots. Praia da Rocha, the spectacular cliffs of Ponta da Piedade in Lagos and the hinterland of cork oak forests define the region.
