14 nights - Canary Islands with Cape Verde - from/to Las Palmas

About this cruise

Clear the calendar from February 25, 2027. This one's 14 nights from Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, and the route visits Praia, Mindelo, Funchal, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Santa Cruz de la Palma and Puerto del Rosario. By the time you're a week in, you'll have completely stopped checking your phone. It starts gently with sea days, so by the time you reach the first port you'll have explored the ship and actually feel on holiday. The route threads through 3 countries along the Azores, Madeira & Cape Verde coast: Cape Verde, Portugal and Spain. You get around 12 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Mein Schiff 7 joined the TUI Cruises's lineup in 2024. Still has that new-ship feel. One of the underrated parts of a longer cruise: you actually get to know people. The couple from dinner, the group at trivia, the bartender who remembers your drink. While everyone else deals with the February cold, you'll be somewhere warmer. And floating. 14 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.
