What to expect

The highlights of this cruise

Experience spring awakening in the southern Mediterranean. Spanish fiesta and French laissez-faire, Moorish cultural heritage and modern cities make every day a special experience.

Leave FUNCHAL under the starry night sky and look forward to wondrous tales from the Arabian Nights: CASABLANCA boasts one of the largest mosques in the world and also numerous bazaars or souks to explore. SEVILLE, too, still bears its Moorish heritage. The EUROPA leisurely reaches the Andalusian capital via the Guadalquivir and stays overnight when the sounds of flamenco can be heard from the tapas bars. Afterwards, enjoy the exclusive flair of MARBELLA and get to know the many facets of VALENCIA: A bicycle tour* takes you from the Gothic silk exchange to the futuristic City of Arts and Sciences. The roots of TARRAGONA, where the Romans left behind numerous cultural treasures, go back even further. SETE, MARSEILLE and ST-TROPEZ promise relaxing days with French savoir vivre before MONTE CARLO awaits you for your journey home.

Golf pro on this cruise: Martin Höcker - More about our Pros

Not only an interesting route awaits the guests of this cruise, but also fantastic routing for Golf & Cruise participants. The Mediterranean tour is at its best: it goes from the north of the African continent all the way to the south of France. Each of these golf courses is something very special, and together they provide you with an opportunity to discover the creations of great golf course designers.

  • Sun 06.04.2025 Casablanca, Morocco – Mazagan Golf Club
    The South African golf legend Gary Player has designed a true links course in the Scottish style right on the Atlantic coast in northern Africa. The very wide fairways weave their way through the wild and unspoilt dune landscapes along the coast. Every tee and every stroke turn into a unique experience in the extraordinary combination of the fairways and the Atlantic setting.

    Tue 08.04.2025 Sevilla, Spain – Real Club de Golf de Sevilla
    This regal course lends itself to a detailed numerical breakdown: 10,000 trees across 61 ha (151 ac.), 90 strategically placed bunkers and nine artificial lakes to negotiate during a round. These interesting parameters create a par 72 championship course with a length of 6,529 m (7,140 yd). With his design, the Spanish professional golfer José Maria Olazábal has created the perfect playground for players of any level. Following a successful round of golf, the day is celebrated with a sherry tasting.

    Sun 13.04.2025 Tarragona, Spain – Infinitum Golf Club
    Altogether 36 well-designed golf holes “fight” their way through the hills of Tarragona. The respective round of golf is repeatedly surrounded and accompanied by mature trees. But that’s not all: lush bunkers or even entire bunker landscapes often add more than a challenge to the game. The fairways, which are otherwise very playable, always create opportunities to reach the target. Since the layout of the course is very generous, the decision to invest in a golf cart is certainly wise.

    Tue 15.04.2025 Marseille, France – Golf Dolce Frégate Provence
    These 27 holes are located on a high plateau close to the Atlantic Ocean. They are divided into an 18-hole and a 9-hole course. The varied sweeping fairways work their way through the neighbouring vineyards and also pass by numerous olive groves, leading to generous, relatively modulated greens that are not always easy to gauge. The fantastic location with ample views of the Mediterranean Sea creates a very special atmosphere. The extensive course layout alone makes it advisable to use a golf cart.

    General Information 

    • In order to guarantee a comfortable flow of play for all golfers, we have determined a basic speed, which is sufficient for a playing time of 4.5 to 5 hours on foot (covering 18 holes with a trolley).
    • Due to tournaments, renovations, etc. at the various golf clubs, our Golf & Cruise programme is subject to change at short notice.
    • Golf & Cruise voyages allow all players with a handicap of 36 or less to play on courses all over the world. 
    • Additional courses can only be booked in conjunction with the basic package.
    • The reservation of e-carts cannot always be guaranteed due to local availability and weather conditions. You may, therefore, have to play and walk just with trolleys - possibly even on hilly courses. Please consider this when planning/booking your Golf & Cruise package. 
    • Halfway refreshments are always ordered via the respective golf club; we have no influence on the quality of the snacks. We kindly ask for your understanding.
    • When booking a Golf & Cruise package and flights through Hapag-Lloyd, we will register your golf equipment directly with the airlines – when possible and required. The current baggage regulations of the relevant airline apply. In your travel documents, which you will receive about four weeks prior to departure, you will find relevant information about this. Excess baggage fees for golf equipment are normally to be paid at check-in.
    • Minimum number of participants for basic packages: 12 persons.
    • Minimum number of participants for additional courses: 10 persons.
