About this offer
07 Dec 26 - Liverpool, United Kingdom
2 Days Sailing
Some of the best moments of cruising are the days spent at sea where you can relax and enjoy the wonderful programme of events and activities we have planned for you.
10 Dec 27 - Matosinhos, Portugal
Matosinhos is a delightful town to explore, where a winter stroll along the promenade offers a laidback atmosphere and a lovely beach located just outside the town. Venture further afield to Porto, and you’ll be offered opportunities to explore the narrow, cobbled streets and colourful houses of Ribeira, or perhaps take a boat trip along the Douro River to witness scenic landscapes of terraced vineyards and traditional wine estates known as quintas. Meanwhile, the city is well known for its production of Port wine, which can be sampled at one of the many wine cellars, or for enjoying Porto’s signature dish, Francesinha, a mouth-watering hearty sandwich of meat covered with melted cheese and a hot, thick sauce in an authentic Portuguese restaurant.
1 Day Sailing
12 Dec 27 - Funchal, Portugal
The glorious island of Madeira is known as the ‘Garden Island’ due to its array of subtropical flowers and plants that seem to burst from every direction. From Funchal, you’ll be able to witness the floral beauty of the island at the exquisite garden in Monte, featuring themed gardens and tropical plants, while its levada walking trails offer unique views of enchanting forests and flowing streams. During December, you will have the opportunity to sample traditional foods and the renowned fortified Madeiran wine, witness local Bailinho dances, or visit one of Europe’s tallest cliffs, Cabo Girao, standing 580 metres above sea level, with a suspended glass platform viewpoint.
13 - 14 Dec 27 - Santa Cruz de La Palma, Canary Islands
The sun-kissed island of La Palma offers many opportunities to discover its magnificent landscapes, including strolling through the beautiful old town with its cobbled streets and colourful wooden-balconied houses or the spectacular views, hiking trails, and waterfalls of Caldera de Taburiente National Park. Meanwhile, volcanic black sand beaches beckon as the warm sea laps against the shore, and local restaurants tempt you to sample delicious local food like “papas arrugadas” (wrinkled potates) with spicy Mojo sauce and La Palma wine, produced on the island from vineyards perched precariously on steep volcanic hills.
Overnight port
14 Dec 27 - Geminid Meteor Shower, Spain
The Geminid Meteor Shower is one of the most spectacular annual meteor showers, typically peaking around December 13th to 14th. Geminids uniquely originate from an asteroid called 3200 Phaethon and not comets and are known for their bright, fast-moving meteors, often producing up to 120 meteors per hour at its peak, making it one of the most active and reliable meteor showers to observe. Join us to witness this celestial display over La Palma, a world-renowned stargazing destination, and marvel at the meteors streaking across the sky from the Gemini constellation, best seen from the decks of your ship on clear winter nights in the Canary Islands.
15 Dec 27 - Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Canary Islands
The winter sun in the Canaries at Christmastime makes it perfect for exploring Tenerife and its beautiful beaches, including the man-made golden sands of Playa de las Teresitas in the north and the volcanic black sands of Playa de las Americas in the south. Spain’s highest peak, Mount Teide, dominates the skyline over Santa Cruz, whose summit can be reached by cable car for spectacular views across the island and beyond. Meanwhile, as the waters surrounding the island are home to a diverse range of wildlife, there will be opportunities to spot pilot whales and dolphins in their natural habitat. As you stroll through the streets of Santa Cruz, they will still be adorned with festive decorations to admire.
2 Days Sailing
18 Dec 27 - Vigo, Spain
Exploring Vigo during the festive season presents the opportunity to experience the magical Christmas lights that the city is known for. As you stroll through its streets, you’ll be able to enjoy elaborate light displays and festive decorations, with the centrepiece being a giant Christmas tree, whose daily light show is perfectly timed with the beats of iconic Christmas songs. Venturing to the charming old town of Casco Vello offers the chance to experience Spanish festivities in tiny boutiques and artisan shops and to take part in the local tradition of eating fresh oysters at Oyster Street (Rua de Pescaderia). Meanwhile, Monte do Castro offers panoramic views of Vigo, which is particularly charming when lit up brightly at night.
