Our late summer voyage from Bilbao around the Iberian Peninsula to Valencia offers the opportunity to visit some marvellously historic and special places and to gain an insight into the region’s splendid architecture, natural wonders and fascinating history. It is difficult to imagine a better time than the month of September for our journey, just about everything is as perfect as it can be, from the comfortable temperatures to the relatively crowd free sites.
Sailing aboard the all-suite MS Hebridean Sky from the charming city of Bilbao we continue to Spain’s Asturias region to explore Oviedo with its Medieval old town. Galicia is next, a unique region with its own distinctive culture where there will be the opportunity to discover Santiago de Compostela, one of Spain’s most beautiful cities. Whilst in the region there will also be a choice of visiting the scenic Iles des Cies, part of the Atlantic Islands National Park, by local boat or alternatively to take a trip into the estuary from the pretty coastal village of Combarro to learn about mussel farming and of course sample some of the produce. Continuing to Portugal for two days of exploration, there will again be a choice of tours on offer including to Oporto with its vibrant Ribeira district, the beautifully preserved Medieval city of Guimares, a full day to the Alentejo region including the enchanting city of Evora or you can explore the captivating capital of Lisbon. After a busy few days, a leisurely day at sea will be a welcome interlude before we arrive in Andalucia and the vibrant city of Seville for a full day to discover the city’s Moorish treasures including the magnificent Alcazar Palace. We continue to Gibraltar and then to the naval port of Cartagena with its fine Roman remains before reaching Valencia.
Our fascinating itinerary incorporates visits to Medieval towns and charming and vibrantcoastal cities combined with time for individual exploration. Sailing in the company of just over 100 fellow travellers, we have the added benefit of excellent local guides and our knowledgeable Guest Speaker who will add much to your experience and knowledge of this fascinating region. Few itineraries in Europe can offer such a wide ranging and endlessly fascinating cultural experience and when combined with the rich maritime history of the region and the sheer beauty of the coastal landscapes, we can promise you a most enjoyable experience.
