What to expect

The highlights of this cruise

Relax on some of the most beautiful Caribbean beaches, enjoy an unforgettable Christmas on board and marvel at the glittering fireworks in the night sky over Madeira – the EUROPA welcomes you to an extraordinary festive season.

In Miami, the EUROPA welcomes you to unforgettable festive days. To kick off your cruise, enjoy three relaxing days at sea with the many amenities on board and let yourself be pampered by the friendly crew. Norman Island in the Caribbean welcomes you and is a real insider tip. With its deep-blue sea, idyllic beaches and lush green hills, the small island invites you to relax amidst a picture-book setting. Antigua also opens up magnificent perspectives: explore the island, which is part of the Lesser Antilles, from different perspectives on an excursion by land and sea*, or combine adventure and relaxation on a safari jeep tour with a stop for a swim*. Surrounded by dense rainforest, the twin volcanoes Gros Piton and Petit Piton are impossible to miss on St Lucia – an extraordinary photo motif that you can approach from the water on a catamaran trip* or admire from the air on a helicopter flight*. Reflect on your previous experiences during relaxing days at sea in the Atlantic and celebrate a very special Christmas on board before Cape Verde is bound to make all explorers’ hearts beat faster: perhaps you would like to explore unspoilt Sao Vicente on a hike* from Mindelo and make Porto Novo the starting point for a jeep tour* to the green north of Santo Antao? Tenerife is also rich in possibilities: enjoy the beauty of the island as you wish or follow in the footsteps of the island’s history on a visit to the historic towns of La Orotava and Puerto de la Cruz*. Madeira promises a fantastic end to the year: an extra-long stay in Funchal leaves plenty of time for highlights such as a levada hike* or enjoying tea in the luxury hotel Reid’s Palace*. And when the famous fireworks light up the sky on New Year’s Eve, this is another unforgettable memory that you will take with you when you disembark in Lisbon.

  • Norman Island, which is part of the British Virgin Islands, is uninhabited and privately owned. With its impressive nature reserve and idyllic bay, it offers ideal conditions for relaxing hours on the beach.
  • The capital of the Antilles island welcomes you with palm-fringed coastlines and a long history. Experience Antigua by land and sea* or on a safari jeep tour with a stop for a swim*.
  • St Lucia is considered the “crown jewel of the Antilles”. Discover the island on a helicopter flight over the island* or enjoy the beautiful beaches and the blue Caribbean sea on a catamaran trip to the Pitons*.
  • Immerse yourself in the colourful world of Cape Verde. Get to know original Sao Vicente* and go on a hike* or enjoy a scenic tour*.
  • The second-largest island in the archipelago is a true paradise for nature lovers: experience impressive mountain landscapes, lush vegetation and fantastic views on the Nature of Santo Antao excursion* as well as on a jeep tour to the green north of the island*.
  • The most famous street, the Rambla del Franco, and the Calle Castillo shopping street invite you to take a leisurely stroll in the beautiful town at the foot of the Anaga Mountains. Look forward to visiting the coastal town of Garachico* and the picturesque village of Masca* or discover the old town of La Orotava* and marvel at the dark beaches of Puerto de la Cruz*.
  • Funchal is located on a vast hill overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and is Madeira’s largest tourist, commercial and cultural centre. Experience the traditions, culture and cosmopolitan European feel of the city on a tukxi ride*. Cabo Girao*, a steep cliff in the south of Madeira, also offers fantastic views, and Reid’s Palace Hotel* invites you to enjoy tea afterwards.
  • Be amazed by the flower island and its diverse plant life. Take the cable car to the village of Monte* and continue to Pico do Arieiro*. Or opt for a levada hike* along the typical irrigation system through the stunning natural landscape.
