Iberian Silk Route – Funchal, Málaga & Barcelona
About this cruise
You come back from a trip like this actually rested, not just "I went on vacation" rested. 14 nights from Port Canaveral on April 26, 2027, visiting Funchal, Cádiz, Málaga, Cartagena Spain, Palma de Mallorca and Barcelona. You finish in Barcelona. The sea days come first, which means no rushing to get off the ship on day one. You hit the ports relaxed and ready. Warm plazas, gelato by the harbour, and old things everywhere you look. Palma de Mallorca alone is worth the trip, A Gothic cathedral mirrored in the harbour. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Explorer Of The Seas has 8 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. With more nights comes more time for the ship's rhythm to kick in: morning coffee in the same spot, evening shows, late-night conversations on deck. Port Canaveral itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. And April is a good time to go. Mild weather, things starting to bloom, and fewer people than summer. Worth booking. That's the short version.
