Cádiz Ibiza
Easily accessed from Leixões, your first port of call, is Oporto – a city famed for its port wines. The charismatic Douro River flows through the centre, amongst many wine cellars and cobbled lanes that are perfect for exploration on foot. From Port Wine to delicious tapas, it’s then on to the Spanish leg of your holiday.
Cádiz is an eye-catching city as well as host for a magnificent day of celebrations, where the Fred. Olsen fleet will be reunited for only the second time in history. To commemorate 170 years of the company’s heritage, special celebrations will take place on board and on the quayside. Savour unique menus and performances from the ships’ Show Teams and local entertainers. Each of the ships will be open to Fred. Olsen guests to visit while in port. Venturing into the city, you’ll also have the chance to discover its history, including the Torre Tavira, the Plaza de España and the ancient centre. Ibiza is another destination full of heritage and beauty. The UNESCO-listed Old Town, Dalt Vila, features cobbled streets surrounded by 16th
century walls. Both Spanish spots are excellent for relaxing on sun-kissed
beaches too, if that’s what takes your fancy.
Known as one of the most beautiful places on Earth to sail into, Valletta sits in the heart of the Mediterranean. Built by the Knights of St John, it’s a must-visit when cruising this region. Don’t miss the chance to uncover the island’s epic history with a horse-drawn carriage ride through the medieval city of Mdina. From one capital to another, Crete’s Iraklion is next. A perfect fit for this itinerary of historic destinations, the Cretan capital is home to archaeological artefacts and monuments that date back as far as 3,000 years ago. Just outside the city is the ancient archaeological site of the Palace of Knossos.
The Suez Canal is one of the world’s great cruise experiences. A transit of this famous waterway will lead on to Jordanian Aqaba where you’ll disembark. Before flying home don’t miss the chance to join a night tour to the world-famous ‘Lost City of Petra’, one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World. Or, experience sunset in the desert landscapes of Wadi Rum – a wonderful way to conclude your holiday.
