Barcelona / Spain (embarkation) / Barcelona is one of the most visited cities in Europe and a place where history, architecture, culture, and the Mediterranean atmosphere uniquely intertwine. Visitors are enchanted by the famous works of Antoni Gaudí, the narrow streets of the Gothic Quarter, the lively promenade of La Rambla, and the kilometers of city beaches. During a Mediterranean cruise, you can discover architectural gems listed as UNESCO World Heritage sites, taste Catalan specialties, and soak up the energy of a city that never loses its unique character.

Málaga / Spain / Malaga is one of those cities that captivates visitors with its relaxed atmosphere, rich history, and more than three hundred sunny days a year.

Tangier / Morocco / Tangier, which has guarded the Strait of Gibraltar since ancient times, is today the second most important Moroccan port and industrial center. Thanks to its strategic location near Gibraltar, it has always been considered the "gateway to Morocco and all of Africa." Throughout its long history, it has attracted many nations, making it an interesting mix of cultures, architecture, and people. Thus, Tangier is not a typical African city. Here you will find an Arab medina with winding streets full of shops, as well as wide boulevards in the French style. It is truly an exceedingly unique and extraordinarily eccentric city that is definitely worth a visit.

Santa Cruz de Tenerife (Tenerife) / Spain / Island of Eternal Spring – this is how Tenerife, the largest and greenest of all the Canary Islands, is often referred to.

day-by-day itinerary

13. day

Recife / Brazil / In 1537, the later capital of the Dutch Brazilian colony New Holland, and today one of the largest metropolitan centers in Brazil, was founded by Portuguese colonizers.

Admire the extensive art collection at the State Museum, and at the Ricardo Brennand Institute, the world's largest collection of weapons. Relax on Brazil's most beautiful beach, Porto de Galinhas, and finally, try the stewed oxtail.
day-by-day itinerary

14. day

Maceio / Brazil / In the 19th century, the area around the sugarcane plantations became what is now the capital of the Brazilian state of Alagoas. Maceió is the gateway to beautiful colonial architecture, but mainly to the enchanting coast of the South Atlantic. Admire the stunning cathedral from 1840 and delve into the folklore traditions of northeastern Brazil at the Théa Brandaa museum. Relax on the beautiful Ponta Verde beach and enjoy first-class swimming in the natural pools of the coral reef at Pajucara beach.
