Embark on a captivating cruise from Lisbon, capital of Portugal, to the shores of Britain, exploring the coast of France along the way. Our first stop is beautiful Porto, to raise a glass to the city’s eponymous wine on an excursion along the River Douro. Relax as we spend a day at sea heading to the French city of Bordeaux. Here, we will spend three memorable days sipping world-class wines cultivated in big-name vineyards around the city, including in the medieval village of Saint-Emilion. Enjoy another restful sea day as we sail to the UK via pretty St. Peter Port on the Channel Island of Guernsey. The British mainland comes into sight at Plymouth, a city with a venerable maritime history. Hear more seafaring tales and see one of Henry VIII's ships, Mary Rose, at our final destination, Portsmouth.

Portsmouth, United Kingdom picture
You would be hard pressed to find a city with a more significant naval heritage than Portsmouth. The world's oldest dry dock, it is home to some of history's most storied ships, including Lord Nelson's flagship at the Battle of Trafalgar, HMS Victory; Henry VII's Tudor warship, Mary Rose; and the world's first iron hulled armored ship, HMS Warrior. The city also has impressive cultural and entertainment credentials. It is the birthplace of author Charles Dickens and comedian Peter Sellers and has served as a shooting location for a variety of films, including the James Bond installment, Tomorrow Never Dies. For all its high-level associations, Portsmouth remains a wonderfully low-key destination. Enjoy a pass along the cobbled streets of the shopping district or step aboard a high-speed elevator of the Spinnaker Tower, the sail-inspired observation tower that rises 560 feet above the port to showcase magnificent views.
