9 nights - Sunny Iberia and Morocco - from/to Palma

About this cruise

9 nights is that sweet spot where you actually start to relax. This sailing from Palma de Mallorca on October 11, 2027 visits Tangier, Cádiz, Lisbon, Gibraltar and Málaga and doesn't try to cram in too much. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Crossing 4 borders through the Western Mediterranean: Morocco, Spain, Portugal and United Kingdom. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Of the stops, Lisbon tends to be the one people talk about: Seven hills of fado, pastéis, and golden light. Around 12 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Mein Schiff 2 takes the food seriously, with 11 restaurants to choose from. 8 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. This length suits most people. Enough time to settle in and actually unwind, without the trip dragging on. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. Sometimes the best trips are the ones you just go ahead and book.
