Itinerary
Day 1
Day 1
Lisbon
Depart 18:00
Lisbon, Portugal's enchanting capital, stands out for its rich history, stunning architecture, and vibrant culture. Must-try experiences include savoring local dishes like bacalhau à brás and pastéis de nata at Mercado da Ribeira. The best time to visit is during the spring or fall, when the weather is mild and the city is alive with festivals and events.
Day 2
Day 2
Leixoes
Leixões is the cruise port for Porto — UNESCO's dramatic river city where 20,000 azulejo tiles line a railway station, port wine lodges offer centuries of vintage tastings, and the Ribeira district cascades to the Douro in granite-and-tile splendor. Visit June via Celebrity or Ambassador Cruise Line for the São João festival and authentic Porto character.
Day 3
Day 3
Vigo
Vigo is Galicia's vibrant Atlantic port city, set along a dramatic ría with Celtic ruins, a storied naval past, and what may be Spain's finest seafood culture — from freshly shucked Arcade oysters at the Mercado da Pedra to smoky pulpo á feira in the old quarter. Visit between May and October, when long golden evenings illuminate the bay and the Cíes Islands beckon for a day trip to some of Europe's most pristine beaches.
