Itinerary

Itinerary

Lisbon, Portugal ➤ Portimao, Portugal ➤ Seville (Cadiz), Spain ➤ Motril, Spain➤ Gibraltar, United Kingdom ➤ Ibiza, Spain ➤ Palma (Majorca),Spain ➤ Barcelona, Spain

DAY 1 – Arrival & Embark on NCL Dawn

On arrival at Dublin Airport Terminal 1, make your way to the Aer Lingus check-in desk area before proceeding through security to your departure gate. On arrival in Lisbon, after collecting your luggage, make your way to Barcelona cruise terminal where your cabin on the Norwegian Dawn awaits.

Once onboard explore the ship and all it has to offer. Why not take the opportunity to book any excursions or Broadway shows you may like to do during the week. (Any NCL excursions booked are at an additional cost)

DAY 2 – Portimao, Portugal

Located on the sun-kissed coastline of Algarve, Portimão is a colourful city with a bustling waterfront and a charming city centre decorated with parks and plazas. History buff? The Museum of Portimão traces human settlement in the area as far back as the Roman and Islamic periods. And if you want to be one with nature, we recommend taking a scenic boat ride up the coast and along the Rio Arade, where you will enjoy the beautiful views and hidden caves to discover.

DAY 3 – Seville (Cadiz), Spain

Indulge in the culture of Andalusia’s capital of Seville and visit its stunning Cathedral, one of the largest in the world. Stop and taste the tapas and smell the orange blossoms during a stroll down the winding Medieval lanes. But be sure you leave time to visit the breathtaking Plaza de Espana.

DAY 4 – Motril, Spain

Motril is a magnificent Spanish gem on the Mediterranean coast. The relaxing sands of Playa de Torrenueva are a great place to spend a sunny day. For some inland exploring, head to the Cueva Del Capitan for a fantastic nature hike. There’s also plenty of history waiting to be experienced in the city. Stop by the Santuario de Nuestra Señora de la Cabeza to see a 17th-century church surrounded by incredible panoramic views. Then head to the Pre-industrial Sugar Cane Museum to learn all about the region’s staple crop.

DAY 5 – Gibraltar, Spain

Go to Gibraltar to discover just how impressive rock can be. From the top of the Rock (over 400 metres up), you can admire the view across the Mediterranean and up the peninsula into Spain. Explore St. Michael’s Cave, a fascinating cavern once lived in by Neolithic peoples and visited by early Romans. Browse through shops filled with embroidered linens from Madeira or go see to the famed Barbary Apes. Then head to a local pub to grab some traditional fish and chips. If you really want to do as the locals do, order a beer (or two) with your meal.

DAY 6 – Ibiza, Spain

Famed for its vibrant nightlife and stunning beaches, Ibiza is a Mediterranean gem. By day, bask in the sun on pristine shores or explore quaint villages and historic sites. As the sun sets, the island transforms into a haven for party-goers with world-renowned clubs and lively bars. Whether you’re seeking relaxation or excitement, Ibiza offers a perfect blend of both, making it an unforgettable destination.

DAY 7 – Palma (Majorca), Spain

On the one hand, this city, founded by the Romans some 2,100 years ago, is replete with (literally) wall-to-wall history and architectural splendor. You can journey back in time and wander the mazes of alleyways and cobblestone paths that surround the Gothic cathedral. On the other hand, Palma is bustling with life, showcasing the island’s best restaurants, shops, nightlife and a vibrant art scene. Explore more of Palma on a European cruise!

DAY 8 – Disembark & Return Home

All too soon you find yourself in Barcelona. Please do not leave luggage outside cabin on the last evening. Make your own way back to Barcelona Airport for your return flight to Dublin.
