Official voyage overview
Some experiences are just too good to rush, and this voyage to Northern Spain, Portugal, and Bordeaux is one of them.

Taste Galicia’s legendary seafood fresh from the Bay of Biscay, sample port within sight of the Douro River in Porto, share pintxos with new Basque friends, and wine and dine amid French vineyards on the “hill with a thousand chateaux.” When you’re not busy pampering your palate, delve into the fascinating history of this region. There are ancient Roman baths in Gijon, medieval Old Towns, and countless modern wonders like Portugal’s stunning, multicolored Pena Palace and the iconic Guggenheim in Bilbao.
