## Itinerary

### Day 1: Southampton (London)
**Arrives:** 12:00 AM · **Departs:** 04:00 PM

The south of England boasts a dramatic coastline that encloses some of the most beautiful countryside in Britain. The landscape of hills and heaths, downs and forests, valleys and dales, is without rival. Southampton serves as your gateway to the countryside - and to a wide variety of historic sites, national landmarks and charming. And of course, London is a two-hour drive by modern highway.

The United Kingdom's premier passenger ship port, Southampton was home for many years to the great tr...

### Day 2: Cherbourg
**Arrives:** 08:00 AM · **Departs:** 06:00 PM

Perched at the crossroads of France and Great Britain, it's no surprise that this piece of real estate was a prize among its many conquerors. Romans, Vikings, Saxons and Normans all fought over this strategic port on the English Channel. Cherbourg's port was once again the center of conflict when German forces captured it during World War II. Liberated by American forces in 1944, Cherbourg serves as your gateway to the historic Normandy landings of D-Day. And there's more to explore-medieval vil...

### Day 3: At Sea
Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities.

### Day 4: Bilbao
**Arrives:** 08:00 AM · **Departs:** 12:00 AM

As the cultural heart of Spain's celebrated Basque country, the shining city of Bilbao is filled with Gothic architecture and landmarks that herald its centuries-old history. But the more modern additions to this post-industrial port town -- namely, the spectacular Guggenheim Museum -- seem to be drawing the most attention these days. 

### Day 5: Total Solar Eclipse
**Arrives:** 12:00 AM · **Departs:** 12:00 AM

### Day 6: At Sea
Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities.

### Day 7: At Sea

### Day 8: Malaga
**Arrives:** 08:00 AM · **Departs:** 04:00 PM

One of Spain's oldest cities, Malaga has been inhabited since the time of the Phoenicians, who called it Malaka. A city of narrow streets, whitewashed houses, churches and sunny plazas, Malaga offers an idealized image of Spain. Andalusia's main port is also your gateway to the resorts of the Costa del Sol. No visit to Malaga would be complete without a trip to Granada and a tour of the fabled Alhambra.

Malaga was the chief port for the Kingdom of Granada, the last stronghold of Moorish Spain...

### Day 9: Cartagena, Spain
**Arrives:** 08:00 AM · **Departs:** 07:00 PM

Cartagena is an ancient port - the city served as Hannibal's Spanish headquarters during the 2nd Punic War with Rome. The city remained a major trading port under the Romans and the Moors. Today, Cartagena is Spain's principal naval establishment and the site of an annual international maritime festival. The city is also your gateway to the Costa Calida, a region that boasts some of Spain's mildest weather along with 175 miles of beaches.

### Day 10: Gibraltar
**Arrives:** 07:00 AM · **Departs:** 03:00 PM

The Rock crouches over the sea like an ancient stone beast, looking Sphinx-like to Africa. Beneath the white cliffs of this natural fortress grows a profusion of palm, pine, and cypress. No fewer than 600 varieties of flowers thrive here, some not found anywhere else on Earth. Gibraltar's stunning setting is matched by its history - five countries have battled for 13 centuries to control the passage between the Atlantic and the Mediterranean. The result made for a cultural melting pot. Veiled Mo...

### Day 11: Lisbon
**Arrives:** 10:00 AM · **Departs:** 09:00 PM

Draped across seven hills, Lisbon was once the center of a vast maritime empire that stretched from the west coast of Africa to the Spice Islands of the East Indies. Then, on November 1, 1755, a violent earthquake destroyed two-thirds of the city in the space of 10 minutes. Only the Alfama, the old Moorish quarter, survived. Today, Lisbon is a stately city of Neoclassical buildings and wide plazas. Eternally linked to the sea, Lisbon's magnificent harbor is spanned by the longest suspension brid...

### Day 12: At Sea
Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities.

### Day 13: La Coruna
**Arrives:** 08:00 AM · **Departs:** 06:00 PM

The port of La CoruÃ±a is Spain's second largest seaport and boasts one of the longest promenades in Europe. Rich in historic significance, this Galician city is a destination in its own right, as well as a pilgrimage point for Santiago de Compostela.

### Day 14: At Sea
