Gilded Galleon – Vigo, Lisbon & Porto

About this cruise

You sail from Southampton on September 20, 2027 and spend 8 nights visiting Vigo, Lisbon, Leixões (Porto), A Coruña and Le Havre (Paris). It's a well-tested route and there's a reason people keep booking it. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. It's a proper Western Mediterranean tour: 3 countries, from Spain to France. Most ports give you about 11 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Mariner Of The Seas has 12 dining spots on board, most of them included. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. Good route, good ship, good timing. It all lines up.
