Day 4
Marseille (Provence)

Arrival: at 07:00
Departure: at 18:00

Marseille, in the south of France, has more spice, grit and edge than the Provençal towns that surround it. A trade city since the time of ancient Greece, the port always seems to be on the brink of change, generating a certain energy that’s hard to find in the timeless and traditional countryside. In fact, sometimes it doesn't seem very French at all. Thanks to a multicultural population, the culinary scene (with seafood dishes and Michelin-starred restaurants galore) goes beyond the classic steak frites at bistros and brasseries. A 19th-century cathedral presides over the city and the working-class Le Panier district has winding streets flanked by fading facades, while Baroque edifices grace the commercial thoroughfare La Canebière, once compared to the Champs-Élysées. Marseille’s 2013 turn as the European Capital of Culture sprouted a crop of cultural venues, from striking museums to cutting-edge gallery spaces and thought-provoking concept shops that showcase local talent. The waterfront has been refurbished—and on sunny days, it’s the place for people- and boat-watching from restaurants famous for bouillabaisse or outdoor cafés serving glasses of rosé and pastis.

Departure:

Day 6
Gibraltar

Arrival: at 12:00
Departure: at 19:00

This strategic link between the Atlantic and the Mediterranean has been ruled by the Spanish, British and Moors. As long as the Barbary Apes remain, the British will rule Gibraltar this is the tradition that has held for 350 years. These pesky primates are a favorite with visitors despite their incessant chatter and light-fingered ways. Ride to the top of the Rock for great views over the Strait of Gibraltar-on a clear day you'll see Africa.

Day 8
Barcelona

Staff Tips

  • Astrid Bell

    Most lines allow you to pre-book shore excursions on their websites months before your cruise; doing this saves time waiting in line once on board and it also gives you first dibs on tours that may get sold out later.

  • Adrienne Keogh

    Planning for a special occasion on board? You may purchase wine, or bon voyage gifts, such as fruit baskets, champagne, birthday cakes, canapés, flowers or other gifts for your stateroom.

    Remember to pack your adaptor! Onboard voltage is 110/220 ac (This would be the average on most ships).

    Astrid BellCruise Product Manager
  • Claire Somers

    The most popular tours sometimes sell out and spas can be very busy during sea days, so your first stop should be the Shore Excursion Desk to book tours and the Spa to make appointments.

    Unless things get particularly dicey, shore excursions will run rain or shine. Pack a rain jacket!
