The famous White Cliffs of Dover greet you as you arrive, and the city has a number of historic sights, including a medieval castle. For many travelers, however, it is primarily a gateway to London. Few places can compete with England’s capital for sheer energy, atmosphere and variety. Lon... ### Day 14: Rotterdam, The Netherlands **Arrives:** 07:00 AM · **Departs:** 12:00 AM Often called the gateway to Europe, the port city of Rotterdam is full of old-world charm.

Here, you can sip a cup of Berber tea at a café, grab a pint at a pub or dine and dance at one of the beach clubs. Beyond the beach, much of the area’s history has been erased, and all th... ### Day 20: Arrecife **Arrives:** 10:00 AM · **Departs:** 06:00 PM Rugged, volcanic Lanzarote—the northeasternmost island of the Canary Islands, which are part of Spain yet lie less than 200 kilometers off the coast of Morocco—is small enough that you can travel its whole length in less than an hour. Driving between the small towns on the island, dotted with some 300 volcanic cones, visitors pass wineries around La Geria valley; its vast estates are covered by odd little lava stone pits designed to protect individual vines from the wind. (Viticulture has a ... ### Day 21: Tenerife **Arrives:** 07:00 AM · **Departs:** 05:00 PM Lush green banana plantations give way to pine forests, then a jumbled landscape of volcanic rock.

Cross the River Tagus on its soaring suspension bridge, watched over by a colossal statue of Christ. Wander the maze of streets in the Alfama, the old Moorish quarter, dominated by the medieval Castle of St George where peacocks strut and shriek. Stroll the Baixa and refuse to leave without a pair of elegant shoes. ### Day 25: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 26: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 27: Dover **Arrives:** 07:00 AM · **Departs:** 12:00 AM Dover, in the county of Kent in southeast England, has understandably been one of the most important ports of entry to the country for centuries, given its location on the English Channel across from France.
