Official voyage overview

Walk in the shadows of Gaudí’s architectural splendors and sip decadent Spanish red wines paired with savory tapas during an overnight stay near the heart of Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter. Master the toasty, crackling craft of perfect socarrat as you cook up paella from regional ingredients at an exclusive cooking class hosted in a Malaga home. An inviting coastal city, Malaga enjoys the warmest winter weather in Europe. Sample regional wines and local delicacies like pescaíto frito (fried fish) at outdoor cafes. Wander Alcazaba Fortress’s ancient halls and fortifications dating back to the 11th century. Delightfully dawdle in galleries adorned with Pablo Picasso’s paintings, drawings, sculptures, and ceramics. Rise to the airy heights of the formidable British stronghold at Gibraltar, where you’ll gaze out across one of the world’s busiest channels to North Africa’s distant mountains. Then ring in the new year at sea, where the oldest crew member rings the yacht’s bell to send off the old year and the youngest rings in the new, as glasses of champagne make their way around the deck.
