Bordeaux Wine & Iberian Coast – Lisbon, Porto & Paris

About this cruise

Block out 11 nights from August 9, 2026 and let this sailing from Dover do its thing. The route covers Le Havre (Paris), Guernsey Island and Vigo, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean and there's plenty of room to breathe between each stop. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 7 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. Crossing 5 borders through the Western Mediterranean: France, United Kingdom, Spain, Portugal and Belgium. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Don't rush through Vigo, which is known as Galicia's vibrant port of seafood and rias. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Carnival Legend takes the food seriously, with 8 restaurants to choose from. 5 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. The shows alone are worth the extra nights. You'll catch comedy, music, theatre, and themed evenings you'd miss on a shorter trip. If you've done the short cruises and want more, this is the upgrade. Longer, deeper, and more relaxed. And August means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. All told, 7 ports across 11 nights covers a lot.
