## Itinerary

### Day 1: Portsmouth, UK
**Arrives:** 12:00 AM · **Departs:** 06:00 PM

### Day 2: Honfleur
**Arrives:** 07:00 AM · **Departs:** 07:00 PM

Honfleur is a lively town and a bustling port, where fishermen can be seen hauling in the daily catch. The maritime influence is everywhere evident; even the handsome church of Sainte Catherine has an oak ceiling that resembles the hull of an overturned ship. The charming square surrounding the church gives way to narrow cobbled lanes of half-timbered houses, elegant manors, and tall, narrow town houses. The quality of light has long attracted artists, including a particularly illustrious group,...

### Day 3: St. Malo
**Arrives:** 07:30 AM · **Departs:** 07:00 PM

The walled city of St. Malo is a quaint maze of fine old buildings, museums, and cafÃ©s serving Breton specialties of crepes and cider. Stroll along the ramparts, walk the cobblestone streets, and hear tales of corsairs, privateers grown rich off captured ships and their booty, authorized by the government during wartime, in order to hinder the enemy. Nearby is the rocky tidal island of Mont St. Michel. The perfect spot for a religious retreat, the first monastic settlement was built here in the...

### Day 4: At Sea
Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities.

### Day 5: Bordeaux
**Arrives:** 08:00 AM · **Departs:** 12:00 AM

Bordeauxâs fortunes have long been tied to viticulture, beginning with an expansion of the wine trade with England in the 14th century. As a result it is a handsome and cohesive city of uniform classical and neoclassical style, with monumental buildings and many fine mansions financed by the almighty grape. The nearby countryside is alive with wine chateaux sporting impressive appellations such as Pauillac, Sauternes, Margaux, and Saint-Emilion. A visit is an excellent opportunity to learn mor...

### Day 8: Bilbao
**Arrives:** 08:00 AM · **Departs:** 06:00 PM

If Bilbao wasn't always a household name, it was transformed with the opening of Frank Gehry's groundbreaking Guggenheim Museum in 1997. Located in the heart of the Basque Country, Bilbao became an instant media darling and tourist mecca. And that was just the beginning of an exciting phase of development in infrastructure and cultural activity, which combined with the Basque love of food, wine, and laughter, solidified the city's place in the annals of tourism.

### Day 9: Ferrol
**Arrives:** 01:00 PM · **Departs:** 09:00 PM

### Day 10: Vigo
**Arrives:** 10:00 AM · **Departs:** 08:00 PM

Catholic pilgrims flock to the nearby sacred cathedral of Santiago de Compostela, built over the burial spot of St. James. In Vigo, Galicia province's most populated city, El Sireno, a gilded sculpture depicting a half-man-half-sea-creature, towers over your head and the city's lovely gardens and well-preserved historical buildings.


### Day 11: Porto (Leixoes), Portugal
**Arrives:** 08:00 AM · **Departs:** 05:00 PM

At the mouth of the Rio Douro lies the city of Porto, known mostly for its port wine trade.

With origins dating back to the 5th century, there is plenty to see in this town that was named European Capital of Culture in 2001. Stroll the Ribeira neighborhood along the river, explore the Cathedral area, or tour the port lodges of Vila Nova de Gaia across the river.

### Day 12: Lisbon
**Arrives:** 06:00 AM · **Departs:** 12:00 AM

Lisbon is one of the oldest cities in the world. Its magnificent harbor made it a logical trading port as far back as the Phoenicians, as well as a departure point for 15th century voyages sponsored by Prince Henry the Navigator, patron of Portuguese explorers. The city is rich in architecture, from Romanesque and Gothic to Post Modern, and criss-crossed by monument-studded grand boulevards. Today it is seeking a place on the world stage by hosting, in addition to its own active cultural calenda...
