Overnight stay on board our ship.

Built on seven hills along the coast of the Atlantic Ocean, Lisbon is a timeless capital where nostalgia and vibrancy blend seamlessly. The handcrafted Azulejo ceramics adorning pastel-toned buildings and the iconic yellow trams climbing the narrow streets give the city the air of a living painting. The mournful Fado melodies rising from the labyrinthine streets of the historic Alfama district let you feel the Portuguese spirit in its purest form. The Belém district, where explorers once set sail for the sea, carries the splendor of the past into the present day with the magnificent Jerónimos Monastery and the world-famous crispy Pastel de Nata pastry. As you watch the Tagus River from a Miradouro (viewpoint) at sunset, you will understand why Lisbon is a fairy tale that should be experienced slowly and savored, rather than rushed.

Tangier is a timeless Mediterranean dream at the intersection of two continents and two seas. Getting lost in the labyrinthine streets of the historic Medina (old town) where whitewashed houses stretch out, and inhaling the scents of fresh mint tea and spices is the best way to step into Tangier's fascinating rhythm. When you look towards the Strait of Gibraltar from the city's high fortresses (Kasbah), you witness that enchanting view where the continent ends and the blue infinity begins. According to mythology, the Caves of Hercules, where Hercules rested and which resemble a window opening to the Atlantic Ocean, crown the city's mystical nature.

The City Where the Future Meets the Past: Valencia. Valencia, the jewel of Spain's Mediterranean coast, is a flawless synthesis of a fascinating historical heritage and futuristic architecture. Enveloped by the fragrance of orange trees, this vibrant city carries the energy and warmth of the Mediterranean in every street. While the historic silk exchange La Lonja de la Seda, one of the most elegant examples of Gothic architecture, and the El Carmen district with its narrow streets whisper the deep-rooted stories of the past, the City of Arts and Sciences (Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias) designed by Santiago Calatrava transports you straight into a science fiction movie, into the future. In these lands where the world-famous traditional dish Paella was born, golden sandy beaches stretching for miles and the greenery of the Turia Gardens bring city life and nature together. Valencia is a life-filled Mediterranean dream that appeals to both the palate and the aesthetic sense.

The Golden Necklace of the Mediterranean: Palma de Mallorca. Palma de Mallorca, the dazzling capital of the Balearic Islands, is the center of deep blue bays, Gothic splendor, and Mediterranean elegance adorned with palm trees. Greeting the city like a fortress rising from the sea, the massive La Seu Cathedral enchants those arriving at the port from the very first moment with its reflecting stained-glass light. In the labyrinth-like streets of the old town, mansions with hidden courtyards, boutique cafes, and centuries-old olive trees take you on a timeless exploration. Accompanied by the sound of waves, an endless coastal road, restaurants smelling of fresh seafood, and traditional Mediterranean architecture, Palma offers luxury and simplicity in a perfect balance. For those who want to trace the deep-rooted tracks of history and enjoy the Mediterranean sun in turquoise waters, Palma de Mallorca is truly an earthly paradise.

Rising like an island in the south of France, between the Mediterranean and the Thau Lagoon, Sète is one of the most characteristic and bohemian port cities in the country. Known as the "Venice of Languedoc" with its crisscrossing water canals, colorful Mediterranean houses, and fishing boats, this coastal town has also been a source of inspiration for artists such as the famous French poet Paul Valéry and musician Georges Brassens. In contrast to the artificial chic of the popular French Riviera, Sète is an extremely sincere, sea-scented, and gourmet port stop.
