PORTS OF CALL

Lisbon, Portugal

Lisbon greets you from the water, a city of seven hills cascading down to the banks of the River Tagus. The approach itself is an event, sailing under the grand 25 de Abril Bridge with the Christ the King statue watching from the opposite shore. This is a city that rewards exploration on foot, but be prepared for its famous inclines; comfortable shoes are not a suggestion, they are essential.

From the port, many of the city’s highlights are within reach. A short taxi or tram ride takes you to the historic district of Belém, the heart of Portugal’s Age of Discovery. Here, the ornate Jerónimos Monastery and the iconic Belém Tower stand as magnificent UNESCO World Heritage monuments to a golden era. A non-negotiable experience is tasting the original custard tarts at Pastéis de Belém, where the secret recipe has been guarded for nearly two centuries.

For a journey into the city’s medieval soul, lose yourself in the Alfama district. This labyrinth of steep, narrow cobblestone streets survived the great earthquake of 1755. As you wander, you’ll catch glimpses of daily life, hear the melancholic sounds of Fado music drifting from small taverns, and can ascend to the Castelo de São Jorge for commanding views over the red-tiled rooftops.

The elegant downtown, Baixa, offers a contrast with its grand squares and grid-pattern streets. Ride the historic Santa Justa Lift for another perspective on the city's layout. For a modern taste of Lisbon’s culinary scene, the Time Out Market provides a vibrant, high-quality introduction to Portuguese food in a casual setting. Lisbon is too rich to conquer in a day, so focus on one or two neighborhoods to truly appreciate its character.

At Sea - Cruising

Gibraltar

Gibraltar is a destination of immense character, a British Overseas Territory where red phone boxes stand under the Mediterranean sun. Its identity is dominated, quite literally, by the Rock of Gibraltar, a limestone monolith that offers one of the most memorable day-port experiences available.

The primary objective here is to ascend the Rock. The most efficient method is the cable car, which provides a swift, scenic journey to the top. From the summit, the views are genuinely breathtaking, a panoramic sweep across the Strait of Gibraltar to the mountains of Morocco in Africa, with the Atlantic on one side and the Mediterranean on the other. While at the top, explore the Upper Rock Nature Reserve. St. Michael's Cave, a natural grotto transformed into an auditorium with a stunning light show, is a must-see. For history enthusiasts, the Great Siege Tunnels offer a fascinating glimpse into the Rock's military past, a testament to ingenuity and endurance.

Of course, no visit is complete without an encounter with the famous Barbary macaques, the only wild monkey population in Europe. They are undeniably charming but also opportunistic; keep a firm grip on your belongings and avoid carrying food. Back at sea level, the town itself is easily explored on foot. Main Street offers a unique, VAT-free shopping experience, while Casemates Square is a lively hub of pubs and cafes perfect for enjoying a pint and reflecting on the singular geography and history of this remarkable port.

Tangier, Morocco

Tangier is not a gentle introduction to Morocco; it is a full, immediate immersion. As the historic gateway between Africa and Europe, the city is a whirlwind of cultures, languages, and histories compressed into a vibrant, and at times intense, port of call. The primary experience lies within the ancient walls of its Medina and the hilltop Kasbah. Here, a labyrinth of narrow, winding alleys reveals the city’s true character. Expect a sensory overload in the best way: the scent of mint tea and exotic spices, the vibrant colors of leather goods and hand-woven carpets in the souks, and the evocative sound of the call to prayer echoing from minarets.

The energy of the Medina can be overwhelming, and navigating its maze-like streets while politely declining persistent vendors is part of the experience. For this reason, engaging a reputable local guide can be invaluable, transforming a potentially stressful day into a fascinating one. Beyond the markets, the American Legation Museum, the first American public property outside the United States, offers a quiet and intriguing slice of diplomatic history. For a moment of tranquility, find your way to the legendary Café Hafa. Clinging to a cliffside, its terraced seating offers sublime views across the Strait of Gibraltar, a perfect spot to reflect over a glass of sweet mint tea.

For those seeking dramatic scenery, a short drive to Cap Spartel offers breathtaking views from the northwesternmost point of mainland Africa, where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Mediterranean Sea. Tangier rewards the curious and patient traveler with an authentic, unfiltered cultural experience that feels a world away from the ship.

Almeria, Spain

Alicante, Spain

Valencia, Spain

Barcelona, Spain

Your Mediterranean cruise may have reached its final port, but we urge you to resist the immediate pull of the airport. To leave Barcelona after only a fleeting glimpse would be to miss the heart of the story. Think of this as the perfect encore, a chance to immerse yourself in a city that pulses with a creative energy and fierce Catalan pride unlike anywhere else in Spain. Staying for two or three extra days transforms your vacation from a wonderful voyage into a truly comprehensive European experience.

Here is how you can make the most of your extended stay:

**Day 1: The Heart of Old Barcelona & Artistic Genius**

After a seamless transfer from the port to your hotel—we recommend the elegant Eixample district for its architectural grandeur and central location, or the atmospheric Barri Gòtic to stay immersed in history—let your exploration begin. Spend your first afternoon getting intentionally lost in the Gothic Quarter's labyrinth of narrow medieval lanes. Discover hidden plazas, the soaring Barcelona Cathedral (not to be confused with La Sagrada Família), and the palpable history that seeps from the ancient stones. As evening descends, wander into the adjacent El Born district. Here, you'll find the exceptional Picasso Museum, which offers a fascinating look at the artist's formative years in a stunning medieval palace. Afterwards, dive into the local culinary scene with a *ruta de tapas*. El Born is brimming with tiny, bustling bars where you can sample *pintxos* (Basque-style tapas, where you keep your toothpicks to tally the bill) and classic Catalan dishes. The experience is as much about the vibrant social atmosphere as it is about the food.

**Day 2: Gaudí's Modernist Masterpieces**

Today is dedicated to the architectural visionary who defined this city: Antoni Gaudí. Begin at his magnum opus, the still-unfinished La Sagrada Família. A word of sincere advice: book your tickets online, with a timed entry slot, several weeks in advance. This is not a suggestion; it is essential for a landmark of this magnitude. Seeing the interior, where sunlight filters through stained glass to create a forest of kaleidoscopic light, is a profound experience you cannot miss. From there, take a leisurely stroll down the grand Passeig de Gràcia, the city's most glamorous boulevard, to admire the fantastical façades of Casa Batlló and Casa Milà (known as 'La Pedrera'). In the late afternoon, make your way to Park Güell (another pre-booking essential) to wander through its whimsical mosaic-covered structures and enjoy one of the best panoramic views of Barcelona stretching out to the Mediterranean Sea.

**Day 3: Montjuïc Hill, Seaside Relaxation, or a Mountain Escape**

For your final day, you have choices. Ascend Montjuïc Hill via funicular and cable car for a different perspective. Art lovers can choose between the Fundació Joan Miró, dedicated to the surrealist master, or the palatial Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya (MNAC), which houses a vast collection of Catalan art. Alternatively, if the sea is calling, spend the afternoon in the lively Barceloneta district. This former fishing village offers a sandy beach and a promenade lined with excellent seafood restaurants—the perfect spot for a long, leisurely lunch of fresh paella and a glass of crisp white wine. For those with a third full day, consider a memorable excursion to the serrated peaks and spiritual sanctuary of Montserrat, a Benedictine monastery nestled in a breathtaking mountain landscape, easily reachable by train.

**Practical Guidance for Your Stay**

Navigating from the cruise terminal at Moll Adossat is simple. A taxi offers door-to-door service, while the efficient Portbus (T3) will drop you near the Columbus Monument at the foot of La Rambla. Once in the city, the Metro is clean, fast, and will connect you to all major sights; a multi-day Hola Barcelona Travel Card is a wise investment. When it's finally time to depart, Barcelona-El Prat Airport (BCN) is easily reached by the dedicated Aerobus from Plaça de Catalunya or by taxi. By giving yourself these extra days, you allow Barcelona to reveal its true character—its art, its flavors, and its rhythm. It’s a finale that will resonate long after you've returned home.

What Can Travel Insurance Help Protect?

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can protect you before and during your trip—keeping you, your loved ones, and your travel budget safer. Benefits vary by plan, and these are brief descriptions. Please read your plan documents for details.

TRIP CANCELLATION

A doctor says you or a traveling companion is too sick to fly
Your parent or child requires hospitalization
You need to attend the birth of a family member’s child
You have a traffic accident (not breakdown) on the way to the airport
A storm shuts down your airport for 24 hours or more

A family member has a qualifying injury and needs your care
A covered emergency, like a fire or flood, makes your home uninhabitable
