Cruise Itinerary Map

PORTS OF CALL

Barcelona, Spain

Barcelona is not merely a starting point for your cruise; it is a world-class destination in its own right. To treat it as just a place to board your ship is to miss one of Europe’s most dynamic and culturally rich cities. We strongly recommend arriving two or three days early. This buffer not only mitigates the stress of potential travel delays but transforms the beginning of your vacation from a logistical chore into a deep cultural immersion. The city’s energy, a unique blend of Spanish passion and Catalan pride, is something best absorbed without the pressure of a ticking clock.

Upon arrival at Barcelona-El Prat Airport (BCN), reaching the city center is straightforward. The Aerobus offers a direct and efficient connection to key points like Plaça de Catalunya. Taxis are readily available and provide door-to-door convenience, while the RENFE train is a cost-effective option connecting to the city's metro system. For your stay, consider basing yourself in the atmospheric Barri Gòtic (Gothic Quarter) for its historic charm, the trendy El Born for its boutique and culinary scene, or the elegant Eixample district for its grand avenues and proximity to Modernista architecture.

To make the most of your time, consider this unhurried two-day itinerary:

**Day 1: The Genius of Gaudí & Modernisme**

Begin your day at the Sagrada Família, Antoni Gaudí's breathtaking and still-unfinished basilica. This is the city’s most iconic landmark for good reason. The experience of standing inside, as sunlight filters through the stained-glass windows and illuminates the forest-like columns, is unforgettable. A word of practical advice: booking tickets online weeks, or even months, in advance is not just a suggestion, it is essential to avoid disappointment.

From there, take a leisurely stroll or a short metro ride to Passeig de Gràcia, Barcelona’s most elegant boulevard. Here you’ll find the “Block of Discord,” a single block showcasing wildly different styles by the city's top Modernista architects. The highlights are Gaudí’s Casa Batlló, with its skeletal balconies and dragon-scaled roof, and Casa Milà (La Pedrera), whose undulating stone façade resembles a seaside cliff. While you can tour the interiors, simply admiring them from the outside is a rewarding experience in itself. The Eixample neighborhood offers a wealth of excellent restaurants for an evening meal, from traditional Catalan cuisine to innovative fine dining.

**Day 2: Old World Labyrinths & Artistic Soul**

Dedicate your morning to the Barri Gòtic. This is the heart of old Barcelona, a captivating labyrinth of narrow medieval streets opening onto quiet plazas. Let yourself get lost. You will inevitably stumble upon the magnificent Barcelona Cathedral, the secluded and poignant Plaça de Sant Felip Neri, and remnants of the ancient Roman walls.

For lunch, immerse yourself in the sensory explosion of the Mercat de la Boqueria, just off the famous La Rambla. While the front stalls cater heavily to tourists, venture deeper to find more authentic vendors and small counter-service bars (known as *barras*) serving incredibly fresh seafood and tapas. For a slightly less crowded but equally vibrant alternative, consider the Mercat de Santa Caterina with its distinctive, colorful mosaic roof.

In the afternoon, cross over into the adjacent El Born district. This area is home to the superb Museu Picasso, which houses one of the most extensive collections of the artist's early works (book tickets ahead). Nearby is the stunning Basilica de Santa Maria del Mar, a masterpiece of Catalan Gothic architecture known for its soaring, elegant interior. As evening approaches, El Born comes alive. It’s one of the best areas for a *tapeo* (tapas crawl). Wander from bar to bar, sampling small plates, or try a *pintxos* bar, where you help yourself to bites speared with toothpicks, paying by the number of toothpicks on your plate at the end.

**Embarkation Day**

Enjoy a final, relaxed breakfast at a local café. Depending on your embarkation time, you might have a few hours for a walk along the Barceloneta beachfront or a pre-booked visit to the whimsical Park Güell for panoramic city views. When it’s time to head to the port (Moll Adossat), a taxi is the most direct and hassle-free option, especially with luggage. Alternatively, the blue Portbus (T3) provides shuttle service from the Columbus Monument at the foot of La Rambla. By arriving early, you will board your ship not in a rush, but with a deep appreciation for the Catalan jewel you’ve had the privilege to explore.

Cartagena, Spain

Cartagena is a genuine historical treasure, made all the more rewarding by its remarkable accessibility. The cruise terminal places you directly at the edge of a city where 3,000 years of history are layered within a short, pleasant walk. This is not a port that requires complex logistics; its greatest rewards are discovered on foot.

The undeniable highlight is the magnificent Roman Theatre, unearthed by chance in 1988 and now beautifully restored. The adjoining museum provides a superb introduction before you emerge into the stunning ancient structure itself. Just a few blocks away, the Roman Forum District reveals the daily life of 'Carthago Nova' with its thermal baths and colonnaded streets. For an even deeper historical perspective, the Punic Wall Interpretation Center showcases one of the few remaining Carthaginian defensive walls in Spain.

Beyond the ancient ruins, Cartagena offers a distinctly Spanish charm. Stroll down the Calle Mayor, a wide marble esplanade lined with elegant Art Nouveau buildings, stopping for tapas or a coffee. The waterfront promenade is a perfect place to appreciate the city’s deep-rooted naval heritage. For the best perspective, take the panoramic lift up to Concepción Castle, which offers sweeping views of the natural harbor and the Roman Theatre below. Cartagena delivers a rich, manageable, and thoroughly enjoyable day of cultural immersion without the overwhelming scale of a major metropolis.

Ceuta, Spanish Morocco

Lisbon, Portugal

Lisbon greets you from the water, a city of seven hills cascading down to the banks of the River Tagus. The approach itself is an event, sailing under the grand 25 de Abril Bridge with the Christ the King statue watching from the opposite shore. This is a city that rewards exploration on foot, but be prepared for its famous inclines; comfortable shoes are not a suggestion, they are essential.

From the port, many of the city’s highlights are within reach. A short taxi or tram ride takes you to the historic district of Belém, the heart of Portugal’s Age of Discovery. Here, the ornate Jerónimos Monastery and the iconic Belém Tower stand as magnificent UNESCO World Heritage monuments to a golden era. A non-negotiable experience is tasting the original custard tarts at Pastéis de Belém, where the secret recipe has been guarded for nearly two centuries.

For a journey into the city’s medieval soul, lose yourself in the Alfama district. This labyrinth of steep, narrow cobblestone streets survived the great earthquake of 1755. As you wander, you’ll catch glimpses of daily life, hear the melancholic sounds of Fado music drifting from small taverns, and can ascend to the Castelo de São Jorge for commanding views over the red-tiled rooftops.

The elegant downtown, Baixa, offers a contrast with its grand squares and grid-pattern streets. Ride the historic Santa Justa Lift for another perspective on the city's layout. For a modern taste of Lisbon’s culinary scene, the Time Out Market provides a vibrant, high-quality introduction to Portuguese food in a casual setting. Lisbon is too rich to conquer in a day, so focus on one or two neighborhoods to truly appreciate its character.

At Sea - Cruising

Brest, France

Le Havre, France

Amsterdam, The Netherlands

Amsterdam is far more than a place to begin your voyage; it is the perfect prologue to your European discovery. As an embarkation port, it offers a unique opportunity to unwind from your travels and immerse yourself in one of Europe’s most enchanting cities before you even step aboard. We strongly encourage you to arrive a day or two early, transforming a simple travel day into a rich, restorative experience that sets the tone for the journey ahead.

Upon arriving at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (AMS), you’ll find the transition into the city seamless. A short and efficient train ride delivers you directly to Centraal Station, the city’s vibrant heart. From here, the city’s treasures are at your feet. Arriving early provides a crucial buffer against potential travel delays and allows you to acclimate to the new time zone, ensuring you board your ship feeling refreshed and ready to engage with your conference sessions.

**Your Pre-Cruise Amsterdam Itinerary**

**Day 1: Arrival & Canal-Side Immersion**

After checking into your hotel, resist the urge for a nap. Instead, embrace the city’s energy with a gentle introduction. The best way to orient yourself and appreciate Amsterdam’s unique topography is from the water. A canal cruise is an essential first activity; gliding beneath historic bridges and alongside the iconic 17th-century gabled houses of the Grachtengordel (Canal Ring), a UNESCO World-hertitage site, is both relaxing and utterly captivating. It’s the perfect, low-effort way to absorb the city’s atmosphere after a long flight.

Disembark and allow yourself to get lost in the Jordaan district. Once a working-class neighborhood, it is now a charming labyrinth of narrow streets, tranquil canals, independent art galleries, and unique boutiques. Duck into a traditional *bruin café* (brown café) for a local beer or coffee. These cozy, wood-paneled pubs are the living rooms of the city and offer a taste of authentic Amsterdam *gezelligheid*—a Dutch quality of convivial coziness.

For dinner, consider an Indonesian *rijsttafel* (“rice table”). This elaborate meal, a culinary legacy of the Dutch colonial era, features dozens of small, flavorful dishes and is a memorable cultural and dining experience. It’s a wonderful way to connect with a significant part of Dutch history.

**Day 2: A Masterclass in Art & History**

Dedicate your morning to the Museumplein (Museum Quarter), home to a trio of world-class institutions. To make the most of your time, book tickets online well in advance.

* **The Rijksmuseum:** This is the national museum of the Netherlands, and its grand halls tell the story of 800 years of Dutch art and history. Stand in awe before Rembrandt’s monumental “The Night Watch” and lose yourself in the serene, light-filled domestic scenes of Vermeer. It’s an experience that is both intellectually stimulating and deeply moving.
* **The Van Gogh Museum:** Home to the world’s largest collection of Vincent van Gogh’s work, this museum offers an intimate and powerful journey through the artist’s life and evolution. Witness his vibrant genius and emotional turmoil through masterpieces like “Sunflowers” and “The Potato Eaters.”
* **Anne Frank House:** A visit here is a poignant and essential experience. Step behind the bookcase into the secret annex where Anne and her family hid for two years. This is a powerful moment of reflection on history that resonates long after you leave. Tickets sell out months in advance, so booking this is the first thing you should do when planning your pre-cruise stay.

In the afternoon, explore on foot. For shopping, bypass the main commercial streets and head to De Negen Straatjes (“The Nine Streets”). This delightful micro-neighborhood is filled with vintage shops, designer boutiques, and specialty stores. Along the way, be sure to stop at a street stand for a warm, fresh *stroopwafel*—a caramel-filled waffle cookie that is a true taste of Holland.

As your pre-cruise stay concludes, you’ll find the transfer to the cruise terminal is simple and efficient. You will arrive at the port not with the fatigue of a long-haul flight, but with the enrichment of a cultural deep-dive, ready to begin the next phase of your adventure with a clear mind and an inspired spirit.

Why Protect your Trip?

Whether you’re planning your next trip or you recently booked one, travel insurance can help smooth over many unexpected travel glitches—while putting your mind at ease, knowing you’re off the hook for covered expenses that could arise from them.

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can provide you benefits and professional support when a covered situation comes up before or during your trip. The following examples may qualify for benefits:

  • Cancelling your trip after unexpectedly becoming too sick to travel
  • Taking care of a sick or injured traveling companion
  • Having to end your trip early due to a family emergency
  • Dealing with a flight delay or cancellation
  • Needing to buy personal items if your luggage is lost or stolen
  • Missing your cruise departure after a covered flight delay

You also can contact our travel protection partner Allianz Global Assistance’s 24/7, award-winning customer service for on-the-go assistance with issues like a medical emergency, replacing your lost passport, or making reservations around the world. To be eligible for a time-sensitive waiver of pre-existing medical condition exclusions, purchase your travel insurance plan within 14 days of initial trip deposit (other purchase requirements and conditions apply). Specific plan benefits may vary. Please review your plan details for more information.

What Can Travel Insurance Help Protect?

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can protect you before and during your trip—keeping you, your loved ones, and your travel budget safer. Benefits vary by plan, and these are brief descriptions. Please read your plan documents for details.

TRIP CANCELLATION

Reimburses your prepaid, non-refundable travel expenses if you need to cancel your trip due to a covered reason, such as you, a family member, or traveling companion experiencing a covered illness or injury. Examples include:

  • A doctor says you or a traveling companion is too sick to fly
  • Your parent or child requires hospitalization
  • You need to attend the birth of a family member’s child
  • You have a traffic accident (not breakdown) on the way to the airport
  • A storm shuts down your airport for 24 hours or more

TRIP INTERRUPTION

Reimburses your unused, non-refundable travel expenses and increased transportation costs during your trip if you have to return home early due to a covered reason, for instance when a family member has a qualifying medical emergency and needs your care. Examples include:

  • You have a covered illness or injury and a doctor says you must return home
  • A family member has a qualifying injury and needs your care
  • A covered emergency, like a fire or flood, makes your home uninhabitable

TRAVEL DELAY

If you have a covered delay while traveling, travel insurance can reimburse you for meals, accommodations, and transportation expenses when your trip is delayed for a minimum number of consecutive hours for a covered reason. Minimum number of hours varies by plan.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL AND DENTAL CARE

Reimburses your expenses related to covered medical and dental emergencies* that might occur on your trip. This benefit can be especially helpful if you have a covered emergency outside the United States, as most health insurance policies won’t cover you outside the country. Examples include:

  • You slip and break your ankle while sightseeing
  • You get food poisoning while sampling the local cuisine
  • You lose a filling and need immediate dental treatment*

*A sublimit and maximum apply for this benefit. Check your plan documents for details.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL TRANSPORTATION

Arranges and pays for medically necessary transportation following a covered injury or illness to the nearest appropriate medical facility to receive care and get you home after treatment.

BAGGAGE LOSS, DAMAGE, or THEFT

Reimburses the replacement of your lost, damaged, or stolen luggage and personal items while traveling.

BAGGAGE DELAY

Reimburses essential items purchased during your trip if your baggage is delayed for a minimum number of hours (varies by plan).

CHANGE FEE

Reimburses fees if you need to change your flight itinerary due to a covered reason.

24-HOUR ASSISTANCE

Provides around-the-clock support during your trip. Allianz Global Assistance’s staff of multilingual problem solvers can help you with medical, legal, and travel-related emergencies whenever they happen. Medical assistance may include, but is not limited to:

  • Medical triage with referrals to local prescreened medical providers
  • Ongoing medical monitoring
  • Payment guarantee
  • Emergency medical transportation

Additional services for travel-related emergencies can help with:

  • Missed connecting flights
