Radiant Riviera – Funchal & Tenerife

About this cruise

There's a reason 7-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Las Palmas de Gran Canaria on February 12, 2027 and visits Santa Cruz de la Palma, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Puerto del Rosario, Funchal and Arrecife. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. Warm weather in any month, with volcanoes as the backdrop. Not bad. You get around 10 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, MSC Fantasia takes the food seriously, with 5 restaurants to choose from. 2 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Las Palmas de Gran Canaria has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. While everyone else deals with the February cold, you'll be somewhere warmer. And floating. Good route, good ship, good timing. It all lines up.
