Transatlantic Grandeur – Paris, Azores & Miami
About this cruise
A 14-night sailing gives you something shorter trips can't: the feeling that you're not just visiting places but actually living somewhere else for a while. This one leaves Southampton on November 20, 2026 and visits Le Havre (Paris), A Coruña, Leixões (Porto), Ponta Delgada, Great Stirrup Cay and Miami. You get off in Miami, which is a good excuse to tack on a few days on land. More sea than shore on this one, with 8 days on the water between stops. The route threads through 5 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: France, Spain, Portugal, Bahamas and United States. Don't rush through Ponta Delgada, which is known as Volcanic beauty in the middle of the Atlantic. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Norwegian Star has 13 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. There are enough performances, events, and social mixers on a cruise this length that you couldn't do them all if you tried. And that's a good problem. Southampton itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. All told, 6 ports across 14 nights covers a lot.
