Iberian Coast Explorer – Vigo, Lisbon & Bilbao
About this cruise
You board in Southampton on September 28, 2027 for 9 nights visiting Vigo, Leixões (Porto), Lisbon, A Coruña and Bilbao, and you come back from this kind of trip wondering why you don't do it more often. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. The Western Mediterranean does coastal beauty and good eating in equal measure. Keep an eye out for Vigo: Galicia's vibrant port of seafood and rias. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Mariner Of The Seas takes the food seriously, with 12 restaurants to choose from. 4 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. That's 9 nights well spent.
