Lush Retreat – Funchal & Tenerife

About this cruise

If you want the classic cruise without a massive time commitment, this is a strong option. 7 nights from Las Palmas de Gran Canaria on February 5, 2027, visiting Santa Cruz de la Palma, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Puerto del Rosario, Funchal and Arrecife. 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. Warm weather in any month, with volcanoes as the backdrop. Not bad. Most ports give you about 11 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, You won't go hungry on MSC Fantasia. 2 restaurants come with the fare, plus 3 more when you feel like treating yourself. The timing adds to it: swapping cold weather for sunshine and sea air is the whole pitch for a winter cruise. Hard to ask for much more than that, honestly.
