Detailed Itinerary
Lisbon, Portugal
A glorious mosaic of beauty, freedom, and authenticity, Portugal's capital is a stirring artwork of a city. Known for the seven hills it spreads across, and its stirring fado music, Lisbon is a pastel-colored blend of houses and beautiful tile artworks - and this creative city strikes a perfect harmony between natural and manmade beauty. Stroll along Alfama's steep, cobbled streets as you explore one of the city's oldest neighborhoods - where each house and door could be its own photograph. Look for the decorative tiles, with the distinctive blues and whites of Azulejo ceramics, and visit the dedicated museum to learn more. Afterward, wind up to São Jorge Castle, where views out across Lisbon's red rooftops unravel. Just one of many majestic viewpoints, you can also seek out Miradouro da Graça for perhaps Lisbon's finest panorama, with the copper-colored suspension bridge stretching over sparkling water beyond the sea of buildings. The elegant Tower of Belém rises in the Tagus estuary and is a historic defender of these shores. The grand, carved cloisters of Jerónimos Monastery spread out close by, and there's another UNESCO-recognized location close by at Sintra, where a colorful town is set amid thick gardens and towering mountains - capped by the royal Pena Palace. Later, relax and take a quick break to drink Ginjinha, a cherry liqueur made from chocolate cups instead of coffee. Lisboetas have a sweet tooth, and the famous Pastel de Nata's crumbling pastry and caramelized custard topping is the essential accompaniment to any coffee stop.
Day at sea
Days at sea are the perfect opportunity to relax, unwind, and catch up with what you've been meaning to do. So whether that is going to the gym, visiting the spa, whale-watching, catching up on your reading, or simply topping up your tan, these blue sea days are the perfect balance to busy days spent exploring shoreside.
Gibraltar, Gibraltar
A curious slice of Britain - picked up and plonked into the sun, sea, and sand of southern Spain - Gibraltar is a unique and historic peninsula, crowned by the iconic Rock of Gibraltar mountain. Bright red phone boxes gleam, Union Jacks flutter in the breeze, and cones of fish and chips are scoffed in the sun in this most British of outposts. At times a surreal and strange juxtaposition, you can be gazing at the African shoreline from the beach one moment, and carefully treading across the runway of a crammed-in international airport the next. Gibraltar's cathedral-like Rock towers 400 meters above the waves and the stark limestone mountain watches out across a narrow, strategic strait between the European and African continents. The pointed Rock is a symbol of this unique place, and you can hike it - or take the convenient cable car - to enjoy the views and meet the mischievous colony of Barbary macaques who live on its slopes. Europe's only wild monkeys roam free and loose on the mountain - so be sure to hang onto your sunglasses and cameras. The Siege Tunnels bring to life the struggles for this land, with the plucky British boring tunnels through the rock by hand, effectively converting it into a giant watchtower, capable of defending the distant territory. Natural caves inside droop with stalactites, while a squat Moorish castle stands proudly at its summit. Gibraltar packs a lot into this two-and-a-half square miles of territory, which has fallen under British jurisdiction since 1713. Grand Casemates Square is a sunbathed plaza, and drizzly old Britain feels a world away, as you sit back and sip ice-cold beers and cocktails in Gibraltar's historic center.

Malaga (Costa del Sol), Spain
Bathing in the Sunshine Coast's stunning subtropical climate, and laying out endless spectacular beaches, it's no surprise that Malaga is one of Spain's most popular cities. The already impressive cultural appeal of this holiday city has skyrocketed over recent years, and with a storied old town and Moorish fortifications, Malaga has a lot to offer. Nearby, you can recline on the renowned beaches of the Costa del Sol, or venture inland to discover the Moorish treasures of Granada and Cordoba. La Malagueta beach is Malaga's spacious urban beach, perfect for a sunbathe and a dip in the warm water, before enjoying seaside cocktails or seafood tapas in the restaurants nearby. Malaga and the Costa del Sol may be best known for glorious weather and beaches, but Malaga can now stake a genuine claim as an artistic powerhouse too. Visit the renowned Picasso museum - housed in the artist's birthplace - before exploring the freshly opened outpost of the Pompidou Centre. The art also spills out onto the streets in the colorful Soho district - splashed with vibrant street paintings. Known as La Manquita - or the one-armed woman - the city's cathedral rises over the historic old town. Its huge bell tower stands tall, but an accompanying second tower was never completed - hence the nickname. The Alcazaba fortress palace looms over the waterfront and forms a spectacularly preserved remnant from the era when the Moors controlled the Andalusia region. Discover more of the Arabic influence by visiting Granada's Alhambra palace, or Cordoba's La Mezquita mosque. Together with Seville's converted cathedral, the cities form Andalusia's Golden Triangle of Moorish wonders.

Cartagena (Spain) , Spain
On the crossroads of mighty cultures, this Murcian port has endless ancient stories to share. A valuable natural harbor attracted many civilizations to this sun-bathed, southeasterly setting - following its foundation by the Carthaginians in 227 BC. Blending the imprints left by countless cultures on this global junction, the presence of everyone from the Vandals to the Phoenicians and Moors can be felt as you explore, walking between ruins and celebrated modernist architecture along Calle Mayor. Cartagena is crowned by the soaring Castillo de la Concepcion - rise to the stout castle aboard a panoramic lift. Inside, look through reams of archaeological treasures, or admire the rolling views down over the port and across the waters. Watch out for the electric blue peacocks who strut flamboyantly. Cartagena's emergence as a visitor destination coincided with a stunning discovery in 1988 - the bowl of a gloriously preserved Roman Theater. Enter to sit among the grandiose ancient venue, so evocative, you can't help but imagine the historic performances that have graced its stage. Wander the breezy waterfront, looking across the narrow strait towards Africa's distant haze, and spotting gleaming warships. Cartagena's perfect harbor means it has been one of Spain's oldest strategic navy positions since the 16th century. Settle to enjoy the joys of tapas in lively bars - sampling crisped paella, squid and honeyed-eggplant. Easter's Semana Santa festivities are typically lively here, as hooded processions, lavish floats, and somber fiery displays roll through the streets.

Ibiza, Spain
A mystical island of rustic beauty, featuring long stretches of sandy beaches, hidden coves, and sunsets that ladle flourishes of reds and pinks across the skies. The White Isle is so much more than just its thudding summer party scene - and an island of culture, fine dining, and sophisticated elegance awaits. Ibiza has always called out to those seeking escape and sanctuary, and you'll soon feel the island's magic as you dive with dolphins, dine on calamari and octopus platters, and revel in Ibiza's rejuvenating, artistic ambiance. Ibiza Town's 16th-century old town is a maze of wide cobbled streets, lined with a crowd of outdoor bars and energetic restaurants serving up heavy platters of fresh seafood. The steep walls of the rustic citadel, Dalt Vila fortress, tower over the town and the area is peppered with museums and historical quirks, as well as the crowning Catedral de Eivissa. Wind up along pathways of uneven cobbles for unrivaled views out over the city and waves below. Play golf on peaceful courses, which unspool along the coastline, lounge on a beach, or sail with the yachting crowd on the calm waves, as you rejuvenate in Ibiza's heavenly glow. Beaches are long and sandy - choose between humming options where water sports and casual beach volleyball matches take place, or seek out quieter scenic coves to enjoy the shade of pine trees and swim in shallow waters. You may find that you're mysteriously drawn to the 400-meter-high protrusion of Es Vedra - a rocky, uninhabited island, which rears from the waves opposite Cala d'Hort beach. Island whispers proclaim it to be the earth's third magnetic point, and home to the sirens of Ancient Greece.

Valencia, Spain
Valencia is a proud city. During the Civil War, it was the last seat of the Republican Loyalist government (1935-36), holding out against Franco's National forces until the country fell to 40 years of dictatorship. Today it represents the essence of contemporary Spain's daring design and architecture along with experimental cuisine - but remains deeply conservative and proud of its traditions. Though it faces the Mediterranean, Valencia's history and geography have been defined most significantly by the River Turia and the fertile floodplain (huerta) that surrounds it. The city has been fiercely contested ever since it was founded by the Greeks. El Cid captured Valencia from the Moors in 1094 and won his strangest victory here in 1099: he died in the battle, but his corpse was strapped into his saddle and so frightened the besieging Moors that it caused their complete defeat. In 1102 his widow, Jimena, was forced to return the city to Moorish rule; Jaume I finally drove them out in 1238. Modern Valencia was best known for its frequent disastrous floods until the River Turia was diverted to the south in the late 1950s. Since then the city has been on a steady course of urban beautification. The lovely bridges that once spanned the Turia look equally graceful spanning a wandering municipal park, and the spectacularly futuristic Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias (City of Arts and Sciences), most of it designed by Valencia-born architect Santiago Calatrava, has at last created an exciting architectural link between this river town and the Mediterranean. If you're in Valencia, an excursion to Albufera Nature Park is a worthwhile day trip.

Porto Mahon, Spain
Happy to sit out of the limelight that Ibiza and Majorca bathe in, Menorca lives life at its own pace, offering endless pine-tree fringed beaches and an appealing, mellow approach. The capital of Menorca is a bashful member of the Balearic Islands, which wait off the sunny Spanish coast. With atmospheric old towns, tiny fishing villages, and unspoiled beach coves, this is one of the group's lesser-known and explored gems - and all the richer for it. A UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, there are wetlands and rolling sand dunes with diverse wildlife to explore - and 220 different birds soar and wade within. The designation helped to halt the threat of overdevelopment, and with gloriously clear waters and leisurely boating trips to enjoy, Porto Mahon welcomes you to a wonderfully preserved and characterful island. The island's capital spills around the Med's largest natural harbor, which sprawls out for three miles. Wander the whitewashed town's streets, heading for the hubbub of the fish market - to sample the best of the day's freshly prepared haul. The majestic organ that fills the interior of Santa Maria church with over 3,000 pipes is a sight to see and can produce a wonderful, gut-vibrating noise. Filled with pottery and cake shops, there's an artsy, laid-back, and creative atmosphere to Porto Mahon's streets. Swing a golf club, and crack drives through the salty sea air of Porto Mahon, or rumble along the paved bike paths that ring the island exploring between wildflower-sprinkled fields and stone walls. Or, head straight for the many beaches and turquoise seas, which are blotched with dark blue patches. When it's time for a sit down in the shade, order up a refreshing pomada - gin and lemonade - before settling on your sandy nook of choice, to watch the setting sun sinking into the warmth of the waves of the Mediterranean.

Palma de Mallorca, Spain
A rugged Mediterranean gem, arising out of the rich blue haze, Mallorca is a Spanish island of cuisine, culture, and sun-gorged beaches. Palma de Mallorca is the island's dominating capital and a sand-colored mirage of glorious buildings and living history. Conquered and liberated countless times over the years, since its Bronze Age founding, the city is your gateway to ceaseless Mediterranean beauty, buzzy markets, and intense flavors. Cafes and bars wait close to the sweeping coastline, where you can enjoy strong espressos to kick start the day, or splashes of red Mallorcan wines to round it off. Bicycles trundle up and down the promenade, which invites you to wander in the morning sunshine beside the waves. Dominated by the indefatigable form of Santa María cathedral, which looms over the city and coastline, Palma de Mallorca is drenched in history and culture. The labyrinth of the old town is a cobbled haven, which bustles with dripping ice creams and sun-lashed squares. Settle to try the island's superb cuisine, and savor local ingredients with an exceptional depth of flavor. Something about the sunshine here makes tomatoes extra sharp and delicious, while the seafood is consistently juicy and plump. The creation of the mighty cathedral, Le Seu, began in 1229 and was eventually concluded in 1601. A perfect encapsulation of Palma de Mallorca's blend of the historic and the contemporary, even Gaudi lent his hand to it, and the interior features a spectacular modernist take on the New Testament from artist Miquel Barcelo, which is painted across the chapel's walls. The splendid Royal Palace of La Almudaina fortress stands nearby, a left-behind Moorish footprint of square towers and Arabic archways that now serves as an official summer residence for the King of Spain.

Monte Carlo, Monaco
Glitzy, glamorous, and unashamedly luxurious - live the high life in Monte Carlo. From the super-yachts jostling for position in the harbor to the lavish bars splashing out iced champagne, tiny Monaco's only city is a high-rolling, decadent affair - and a gloriously indulgent, sun-soaked taste of the good life. Famed for its low tax status - and the Formula One race that roars through its hairpin bends and tight streets each year - Monaco is the ultimate playground of the rich and famous. Monaco may be the world's second-smallest country - only the Vatican has a smaller footprint - but Monte Carlo has a confidence, impact, and appeal that few can match. The gilded Royal Palace adds an air of regal glory, and whether you want to soak up the culture at the opera or raise the stakes at a casino - doing your finest 007 impressions - you'll feel very much at home here. Soar above the high-rise hotels and glorious casinos in a helicopter, to see the city from above, and admire landmarks like the cathedral where Grace Kelly married the Prince of Monaco in 1956. High-end fashion, fragrances, and fancy adornments await in the gold-label shops of Monte Carlo's lavish shopping streets, while the old town's pink and lemon floral facades offer an authentic balance of historic character to counterpoint the well-heeled excesses. A wonderful escape, revel in old-world glitz and glam, as you admire twinkling chandeliers and wander between palatial architecture while enjoying your time in Monte Carlo's abundant wonderland. Before you leave, explore the storied fortress that protected this tiny state's independence for so long.

Shore Excursions
Cartagena (Spain) , Spain
Best of Murcia
CAR-BLocated in the foothills of the Sierra Carascoy is Murcia, which dates from the 9th century and offers an array of architectural delights. Murcia is one of Spain's least known regions, even among Spaniards themselves, and first-time visitors are often surprised by the diversity of this small region and the friendliness of its people. Despite its growing popularity, the region remains relatively unspoilt compared to the more crowded Costa del Sol and Costa Blanca. Fruits and market-garden products are important to the Murcian economy, and are exported all over Europe. Depart Cartagena by coach for the approximate 1-hour journey through the foothills of the Sierra Carrascoy. Murcia Your destination is the Capital of the province Murcia. Settled by the Moors in the 9th century and conquered by the Christians in the 13th century, this bustling city offers an array of architectural delights. Monastery of the Virgin of Fuensanta Your first stop is the Monastery of the Virgin of Fuensanta (the Patroness of Murcia). Enjoy a panoramic view of the Murcian orchards, the most productive in both fruits and vegetables in all of the Mediterranean. You'll also visit the Cathedral in Cardenal Belluga Square, where you will see three different architectural styles, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque. Next to the Cathedral you'll see the Episcopal Palace. Royal Casino The Royal Casino of Murcia is one of the most historic buildings, situated in the heart of the city centre not far from the cathedral, has a mixture of different artistic styles. In 1983 it was declared a National historic building. The Royal Casino of Murcia Society, founded on 11th June 1847, first started in the mansion of Marqués and later various other properties were acquired to form the present layout. Although, this is still an acting private club, the ground floor is being kept open to public and cultural events. After a period of decline in the second half of the 20th century, the Royal Casino of Murcia Society has recently been revived considerably. Between 2006 and 2009 the building was completely refurbished and King Don Juan Carlos I granted the Casino the title ´Real´ (Royal). Very complete refurbishments was done including structures, foundations, floors, walls, roofs and all of the decorative features including historic furniture, lamps and artwork. Many of the rooms were restored to their original decor and added latest technology throughout the building. You'll also have some free time for a stroll on your own near the cathedral before boarding the coach to return to Cartagena. Full participation may include a limited number of steps, uneven surfaces, and/or periods of standing.

Cartagena (Wheelchair Accessible)
CAR-OThis tour involves a moderate amount of walking of about 0.7 miles and is specially designed for guests with limited mobility and guests who utilize a wheelchair or a scooter. This Cartagena shore excursion gives you a wonderful opportunity to experience the very best of Cartagena and its intriguing history, including the impressive Roman Theatre and the fascinating archaeological site from the 3rd century BC, the Punic wall.

Captivating Cordoba
AGP-LLeave Malaga behind and embark on a scenic 2.5-hour drive through the Andalusian countryside towards the historical city of Cordoba. Cordoba & the Grand Mosque Cordoba was once the largest and probably the most beautiful city in the world. It is a city that demonstrates a past where Jewish, Christian and Muslim's peacefully co-existed and left a beautiful legacy of architecture to be appreciated for centuries to come. Cross the Guadalquivir River via the Roman Bridge and enter the city close to the Mesquita (Grand Mosque) which is one of the largest Mosque's in the world.

Weave your way through the arches and columns to discover this stunning and bizarre piece of art and architecture. Historic Quarter & Mudejar Synagogue Step back out into the city for a walk around the Historic Quarter - La Juderia. Once the home of the Jewish Community, it is an intricate network of narrow and winding streets lined with flower filled patios and traditional buildings hiding just around the corner. Make a visit to the Mudejar Synagogue which is one of only 3 remaining Synagogues in Spain. Lunch & souvenirs shopping Lunch will be served in a local restaurant and afterwards enjoy some free time to shop for souvenirs or simply take a last look at the city.

Hiking the Stunning Caminito del Rey with Tapas
AGP-JHike Caminito del Rey Leave the pier by coach and in 75 minutes reach the fascinating landscape of the "Caminito del Rey". The Caminito del Rey has an itinerary that will lead you across the heart of Desfiladero de los Gaitanes (Gaitanes Ravine). The gorge is famous for the walkway - not for the faint hearted which hangs 100m above the base of the gorge. The past provided access to a hydro-electric system and took its name from an official visit by Alfonso XIII of Spain in 1921. The gorge runs from the outlet of the "Embalse del Gaitanejo" to "El Chorro". There are two extremely narrow sections at each end of the gorge with a wider bowl in-between. In addition to the re-furbished walkway, the old Malaga-Cordoba railway line runs through the gorge in a set of tunnels and bridges. The gorge features prominently as a place of escape and refuge for the main characters played by Stephen Boyd and Brigitte Bardot in the 1958 movie "The Night Heaven Fell". The railway and sections of the Caminito were used in the final location shots of the 1965 adventure film Von Ryan's Express. Discover the remote landscape on foot and learn curious facts about railroad pioneers and the electricity production from you guide. Tapas After a 3h30 walk surrounded by nature, you will enjoy a tapas tasting with drinks at the end of the route. The setting for your refreshment is an old flour factory built in 1827 in the Gaitanes Gorge. Reservation note: Entrance tickets are not guaranteed. If Silversea manage to get group tickets for the suitable entrance time (usually 2-3 months before the call), the waitlisted bookings will be cleared following the order of the reservation date. A message will be e-mailed to all waitlisted Silversea Guests to notify the confirmation of their booking and the departure time.

Málaga Highlights
AGP-AExplore the splendid landmarks, attractions and architecture of the capital of the Costa del Sol during this scenic, half-day visit to Málaga, a historic and culturally rich provincial capital which has long lived in the shadow of the iconic Andalucian cities of Granada, Córdoba and Seville. Yet, it has rapidly emerged as the province's city of culture with its so-called 'mile of art' being compared to Madrid, and its dynamism and fine dining to Barcelona. Depart the pier for the approximate 30-minute sightseeing drive along Alameda Boulevard en route to the hilltop location of Gibralfaro. Gibralfaro As you walk along the ramparts crowning the 560-foot (168-metre) summit, take in splendid views over the city, the harbour and the bullring. Afterward, re-board the coach for the drive back down to the city centre. Alcazaba From City Hall, take a brief walk to the Alcazaba. At the foot of this ancient fortress, view the excavated ruins of a Roman amphitheatre. The restored Alcazaba dates back to the 11th century, when the king of Granada ordered the fortress built and modelled on the style of the Alhambra. After the Christian conquest, the Catholic kings took over the Alcazaba, and King Philip IV used it as his Málaga residence. Leaving the Alcazaba, your walk continues on to the cathedral. Cathedral The cathedral's splendid interior is highlighted by exquisitely-carved choir stalls, and other fine examples of Spanish Renaissance sculpture. Following your visit, some free time is made available to explore the surrounding area before re-boarding your coach for the drive back to the pier.

Spectacular Historic Ronda
AGP-FIndulge your senses with the spectacular beauty of Andalusia without the crowds typically found in coastal resorts during this full-day visit to charismatic Ronda. The city is famous worldwide for its dramatic escarpments and views, and for the deep El Tajo gorge that carries the rio Guadalevín through its centre. Depart the pier for the scenic, approximate 2-hour drive to Ronda. En route, proceed inland and through the scenic Serrania Mountain region. Ronda Ronda's cultural background combines Moorish influence with Christian Spanish remains. However, most visitors come here because of Ronda's unique setting in which two parts of the town come together astride the breath-taking 300-foot-deep (90-metre) Tajo Gorge. The gorge's steep cliffs plunge into the Guadalevin River ravine. It was this near-impregnable location that kept Ronda in Muslim hands until 1485, when Catholic kings finally conquered it. Upon arrival, see the 13th-century Almocabar Gate, which provided access to the castle, town and the 16th-century Carlos V Gate. Bullring Your walking tour commences along the ring road towards the bullring, which dates back to the Catholic kings and is recognised as the oldest bullring in Spain. From here, pass through the Paseo Blas Infante for a spectacular panoramic vista over the Tajo Gorge, then proceed towards Plaza España across the 18th-century New Bridge, whose central part was formerly used as a prison and is today the symbol of the town. Bosco House A stop is made for a visit the Salesian San Juan Bosco House, which is renowned for its beautiful ceramics and gardens, and excellent views to the other side of the Tajo Gorge. Next, continue past the House of the Moorish Kings, the 18th-century Palace of the Marquis of Salvatierra and the well-preserved Arab baths that date from the 13th century. Mondragón Palace Your walking tour then passes by the Plaza del Gigante, site of the Mondragón Palace. Constructed in 1314 by Abolemic, the King of Ronda, it has been the residence of many kings and governors ever since. Santa María La Mayor Your tour concludes with a brief visit to the 13th-century church, 'Santa María La Mayor', a former mosque that was converted into a church by King Ferdinand. Following your guided visit, some free time is made available for lunch and further exploration on your own.

Caves of Drach
PMI-GUnveil the mystery of Mallorcan pearls during this half-day journey to the renowned Caves of Drach, and a subterranean classical concert at one of the world's largest underwater lakes. The caves have formed by water being forced through the entrance from the Mediterranean Sea, and some researchers think the formation may date back to the Miocene. There is an underground lake situated in the caves called Martel Lake. Porto Cristo, Caves of Drach Depart the pier for the approximately one-hour drive to the island's interior, passing through the beautiful historic town of Porto Cristo, one of the island's oldest harbours. Arrive to the Caves of Drach, or 'Cuevas del Drach', located near Porto Cristo. Perhaps as famous as the pearls, the caves were believed to have been discovered in the 12th century. In 1929, a visitor's entrance was built at the caves, and in 1935, the caves' interior was artistically illuminated for the first time. Today, the caves offer a surreal experience to visitors strolling through their ancient rooms. Dramatic lighting highlights the grottoes and silhouettes of immense stalagmites and stalactites. During your walking tour inside the cave, see formations with names like 'Snow Mountain', 'The Ruined Castle', and 'Diana's Baths' en route to the shore of Lake Martel, one of the largest subterranean lakes in the world. Here, a short concert of classical pieces is accompanied by the interplay of shadows and light against the water. Scenic drive, Pearl factory The excursion continues with a stop to the Pearl factory. Here you will have time to browse during a visit to Majorica, the local world-known pearl factory and showroom. The return motorcoach ride to the ship is across the island's fertile plains, passing through many local picturesque farming communities and very typical windmills.
