What to expect

The highlights of this cruise

Spring fever sets in when the EUROPA reaches fascinating destinations in the western Mediterranean: look forward to Morocco’s oriental flair, Andalusia’s traditions and blossoming islands before your cruise takes you to Rome.

Get in the mood for spring: via LAS PALMAS you will reach LANZAROTE, where the volcanoes* in the Timanfaya National Park impressively reveal the mighty volcanic origins of the Canary Islands. Next explore Morocco’s highlights in depth: go in search of clues in CASABLANCA and be enchanted by the oriental flair of TANGIER. Andalusian flair surrounds the Spanish cities of CADIZ and MALAGA, which were once ruled by the Moors and whose magnificent architecture with the Alhambra* set in the middle of the Sierra Nevada is sure to impress. With MALLORCA, MENORCA and CORSICA, you will enjoy three beautiful islands that entice you at this time of year with relaxed excursions to idyllic villages, wild and romantic mountain worlds and unspoilt bays. The cultural metropolis of ROME more than lives up to its reputation – enjoy its fascination and delicacies on a culinary discovery tour*. After a final day at sea, your cruise ends in glorious NICE.

  • Small streets and a beautiful harbour promenade are waiting to be discovered in Lanzarote’s capital. The Canary Island fascinates with its unique volcanic landscape, characterised by solidified lava and bizarre formations. Architecturally, the island was strongly influenced by the artist César Manrique, who created a harmonious combination of art, architecture and nature.

  • Welcome to Casablanca, the city of glamour, romance and mysterious charm. Immerse yourself in the lively atmosphere of the medina, where you will find hidden treasures in its narrow streets. Admire the impressive Hassan II Mosque with its minaret rising majestically over the city. Stroll along the Corniche and enjoy the views over the sparkling ocean. Discover the lively city centre with its stylish cafes and elegant boutiques. And don’t forget to try the delicious Moroccan cuisine, from hearty tagines to sweet baklava. Casablanca awaits with open arms, ready to lead you into its magical world.
  • From Tangier, you can visit the nearby towns of Asilah and Chefchaouen, both of which are known for their picturesque old towns and blue-and-white houses. The historic medina in Tangier is also well worth a visit, with its narrow streets and colourful markets. The city offers breathtaking views over the Strait of Gibraltar and the coast of Spain. Other highlights include the Kasbah museum, the Cave of Hercules and Cape Spartel.
  • In Cadiz, a visit to the impressive cathedral, one of the masterpieces of the baroque architectural style, is not to be missed. Wander through the narrow streets of the historic district and discover the city’s rich history. The Torre Tavira is well worth a visit, as you enjoy the breathtaking views of the city and the harbour. Relax on beautiful beaches like the Playa de la Caleta and soak up the Mediterranean atmosphere. Don’t miss the Mercado Central, a lively market where you can try fresh seafood and local specialities. Immerse yourself in the culture of flamenco and visit a traditional flamenco show. Cadiz is also a good starting point for discovering the surrounding white villages, including Vejer de la Frontera.
  • The British overseas territory with its houses in a mix of Victorian and Moorish style lies at the southern tip of the Iberian peninsula. Get to know the most interesting aspects of Gibraltar on a tour1 to the famous landmark of Nelson’s Anchorage, the stalagmites of St Michael’s Cave and the Rock with its monkeys and view of the African coast.

  • Start your discovery tour in Malaga with a visit to the Alcazaba, a Moorish fortress with breathtaking views. Immerse yourself in the world of art and visit the Picasso Museum. Wander down Calle Marques de Larios, a lively shopping street, and enjoy the Mediterranean flair. Relax on the beaches of the Costa del Sol or stroll through the charming harbour of Malaga.

  • Palma de Mallorca, the capital of the Balearic Islands, has numerous highlights on offer. Take a look at the majestic La Seu cathedral and stroll through the charming old town with its narrow lanes and historic buildings. Visit Bellver Castle with its panoramic views over the city. Or relax on idyllic beaches such as Playa de Palma or Cala Major. Take a walk along the Passeig des Born promenade and discover the lively shopping street Avenida Jaume III. An insider tip is Santa Catalina neighbourhood with its trendy cafes, bars and restaurants, where you can enjoy the local cuisine and nightlife.

  • Welcome to Mahon, Menorca’s charming capital. Discover the city’s fascinating history, influenced by the Moors and the British. Stroll along the picturesque harbour and admire the impressive fortress of La Mola. Enjoy Mediterranean cuisine in the city’s cosy restaurants and immerse yourself in the relaxed pace of island life. Mahon is a true gem waiting to be discovered.
  • Walk through the streets of the old town in the city where Napoleon Bonaparte was born and pass the house where he once lived, which is now the Palais Fesch museum and houses a significant collection of Italian paintings. Come face to face with Corsica’s impressive and wild romantic beauty in the Prunelli Gorges.
