Itinerary
Day 1
Day 1
Hamburg
Hamburg — once the 'Gateway to the World' and still Germany's greatest port — combines Hanseatic grandeur with an unmatched contemporary creative energy. The Speicherstadt, a vast nineteenth-century brick warehouse district now housing design studios, museums, and the Elbphilharmonie concert hall perched dramatically above the Elbe, exemplifies the city's gift for transforming history into living culture. The Reeperbahn's legendary nightlife, the Alster lake's elegant promenades, and an exceptional restaurant scene anchored by the finest fresh fish from the daily harbour market complete an irresistible portrait. Hamburg rewards visits year-round, though May through September offers the longest, most luminous days.

London
London is undoubtedly one of the world's greatest cities. With a population of nearly eight million, it is by far the largest city in Europe, spreading over an area of more than 620 square miles. In addition to numerous monuments from its past as a world empire, London is equally known for its pageantry and tradition. Though the city was heavily damaged during the Blitz of World War II, a surprising number of monuments were miraculously spared from destruction. Soon after the end of the war, England's capital began to prosper as never before. London has something for everyone - wide boulevards buzzing with excitement far into the night, quiet squares and explorable alleyways. Large expanses of greenery, such as Hyde Park, Green Park and St. James Park, are all within a few minutes' walk of the West End shops.The museums and galleries are as varied and rich as you will find anywhere. Monuments run the gamut from Roman ruins to sumptuous castles and opulent public buildings, representing the architecture of the triumphal British Empire. Many of these buildings were constructed in the 18th century and during the reign of Queen Victoria to reflect the city's status as the financial and administrative hub of a great empire. Today, London wears its 2,000 years of history with dignity. Alongside modern skyscrapers are remnants of the city's Roman wall. Norman London is evident in one of London's best-known landmarks, the Tower of London, whose origins date back to William the Conqueror.The city's oldest pub, a few medieval churches and the timbered Elizabethan façade of Staple Inn recall London before the Great Fire of 1666. Stately Georgian squares from the 18th century are preserved in the fashionable West End.
Day 4
Day 4
London Tower Bridge
London Tower Bridge is cruising's most cinematic arrival — watching the Victorian bascules lift as your ship enters the Pool of London past the 950-year-old Tower, Borough Market, and centuries of maritime history compressed into a single Thames transit. Arrive May through September via Scenic or Viking for the floating introduction to London that transforms port logistics into ceremony.

Day 5
London (Greenwich)
Depart 16:00
The point from which every navigator on earth determines their longitude, Greenwich anchors the world's meridian with a UNESCO-listed collection of maritime monuments — from the brass Prime Meridian line at the Royal Observatory to the Cutty Sark's wind-worn hull and the baroque Painted Hall of the Old Royal Naval College. Board the Thames Clipper for a 30-minute glide to central London, or explore the weekend market's global food stalls. Summer brings the Thames to its most inviting, with long evenings golden above the river.

Rouen
Depart 19:00
Rouen, the medieval capital of Normandy set in a wooded meander of the Seine, rewards slow exploration with one of France's richest concentrations of Gothic architecture. The vast cathedral — immortalised by Monet in his celebrated series of canvases — dominates a city where half-timbered lanes wind between Renaissance mansions and the square where Joan of Arc was burned in 1431. The covered market overflows with Normandy's great dairy bounty: camembert, livarot, and pont-l'évêque alongside cider and calvados. Paris lies just ninety minutes south by train. Spring and early autumn offer the most atmospheric conditions.

Lisbon
The capital of Portugal, Lisbon is a city open to the sea and carefully planned with 18th-century elegance. Its founder is said to be the legendary Ulysses, but the theory of an original Phoenician settlement is probably more realistic. Known in Portugal as Lisboa, the city was inhabited by the Romans, Visigoths and, beginning in the 8th century, the Moors. Much of the 16th century was a period of great prosperity and overseas expansion for Portugal. Tragedy struck on All Saints' Day in 1755 with a devastating earthquake that killed about 40,000 people. The destruction of Lisbon shocked the continent. As a result, the Baixa (Lower City) emerged in a single phase of building, carried out in less than a decade by the royal minister, the Marques de Pombal. His carefully planned layout of a perfect neo-classical grid is still evident and remains the heart of the city.There are still remains of pre-quake Lisbon in the Belйm suburb, which survived the destruction, and the old Moorish section of the Alfama sprawling below the Castle of St. George.
