Day 1 |
To visit Barcelona is to embrace both the past and the future. There is much to do and see in this cosmopolitan capital of Catalonia, from medieval structures to beaches to UNESCO Heritage Sites by Antoni Gaudí and Lluís Doménech i Montaner. FC Barcelona, the professional football club, is also a huge draw here.
Gaudí is responsible for many of Barcelona's must-see attractions, including iconic church La Sagrada Familia, the arts center Casa Mila, and public park system Park Güell. Culture, economics, architecture, and gastronomy all combine to make Barcelona a magical and unparalleled experience. Stroll pedestrian walkways in the old quarter, soak in the green spaces, and gaze at the Mediterranean, gelato in hand! |

"At Sea" typically refers to the vast and diverse marine environments that span our planet, rather than a specific city or destination. However, exploring the concept of being "at sea" can lead to a variety of fascinating experiences and attractions related to maritime adventures and oceanic wonders. One of the most enticing ways to experience "at sea" is through a luxury cruise. Cruises offer a unique opportunity to explore various destinations while enjoying the comforts and amenities of a floating resort. Modern cruise ships provide a blend of relaxation and adventure with activities ranging from fine dining and Broadway-style shows to excursions exploring tropical islands or historical coastal cities. For those interested in marine life, exploring the world's oceans through scuba diving or snorkeling can be an unforgettable experience. Locations such as the Great Barrier Reef in Australia and the coral reefs of Belize offer stunning underwater vistas and an opportunity to observe diverse marine species in their natural habitats. National Geographic provides insights into the best diving spots and conservation efforts that protect these underwater treasures. |

In Southern Spain, the beautiful capital city of Seville invites travelers to its alluring, centuries-old dance.

Must-sees in Seville include the landmark palace Royal Alcázar of Seville, the Gothic, bell-towered Catedral de Sevilla, and Plaza de España, an architectural marvel with Moorish, Baroque and Renaissance influences.

Lisbon, the enchanting capital of Portugal, entices sightseers with its vibrant color, stunning Gothic architecture, and temperate weather. Easily traversed by foot or tram, the city’s distinct quarters and vivid cultural landmarks make Lisbon an excellent spot for exploration.
The Alfama district’s notable red roofs beckon you. Its cobblestoned roads lead to the Castelo de São Jorge, once a Roman and Moorish stronghold, as well as a number of charming cafés and clubs. Alfama’s Museo do Fado offers fascinating exhibitions on the Fado genre of Portuguese music, whose melodic sounds can be heard throughout the neighborhood. A trek northeast of the Alfama district will bring you to the Museu Nacional do Azulejo, a museum displaying the intricate and colorful Portuguese tiles that line the city’s buildings. Be sure to venture south of Alfama to the central Baixa district, where the magnificent Rua Augusta Arch entices visitors to stroll the Praça de Comércio square. Head to the city’s waterfront Belém neighborhood for a spectacular view of the sparkling Tagus River and incredible beaches. Lisbon's two UNESCO World Heritage sites are also located in the Belém district: the mighty Belém Tower and the sumptuous Mosteiro dos Jerónimos. Located on the water’s edge, Belém Tower is a small castle that once welcomed Portuguese explorers. The Monastery of St. Jerome was constructed to exalt Vasco de Gama’s exploration of India.

Madeira, an archipelago off the coast of Portugal, is often referred to as the “Island of Eternal Spring” due to its mild climate and lush landscapes. Funchal, its vibrant capital, is a perfect blend of natural beauty and rich history. Visitors can explore the cobblestone streets of the old town, marvel at the Gothic-style Sé Cathedral, and stroll through the colorful Mercado dos Lavradores, where local farmers sell fresh produce, exotic flowers, and the island’s famous wine. For those interested in history, the Museu CR7 celebrates Madeira’s own football superstar, Cristiano Ronaldo, and offers a glimpse into his life and career. Nature lovers will be enchanted by Madeira’s dramatic scenery, from the towering cliffs of Cabo Girão, one of the highest sea cliffs in Europe, to the island’s famous levadas—historic irrigation channels that now serve as hiking trails. One of the most popular routes is the Levada do Caldeirão Verde, which takes hikers through laurel forests, tunnels, and waterfalls to a stunning lagoon. The island’s coastline is equally breathtaking, with crystal-clear waters perfect for snorkeling and dolphin watching. Madeira’s festivals add to its allure, with the Flower Festival being one of the most famous. Held each spring, this event turns Funchal into a sea of blossoms, with parades, floral carpets, and vibrant displays celebrating the island’s rich horticultural heritage. The Madeira Wine Festival, another must-see, celebrates the island’s winemaking traditions, offering tastings, tours, and lively entertainment. Fun fact: Madeira’s unique microclimates allow for the cultivation of a wide variety of fruits, including the rare and delicious Madeira banana, which is smaller and sweeter than those found elsewhere. You’ll also find exotic fruits like passion fruit and custard apple, which can be enjoyed fresh or in traditional Madeiran desserts. |
