Aboard Seabourn Sojourn with Seabourn
Cruise Overview
Set on seven hills on the banks of the River Tagus, Lisbon has been the capital of Portugal since the 13th century.
It is a city famous for its majestic architecture, old wooden trams, Moorish features and more than twenty centuries of history.
Following disastrous earthquakes in the 18th century, Lisbon was rebuilt by the Marques de Pombal who created an elegant city with wide boulevards and a great riverfront and square, Praça do Comércio.
Today there are distinct modern and ancient sections, combining great shopping with culture and sightseeing in the Old Town, built on the city's terraced hillsides.
The distance between the ship and your tour vehicle may vary.
This distance is not included in the excursion grades.
Shaped by the Atlas Mountains on one side, Agadir is framed on the other by a magnificent crescent-shaped beach.
While little is known of the city’s origins, the Portuguese created a fortress here at the end of the 15th century, naming it Santa Cruz de Ghir.
Freed from Portugal’s occupation by the Saadians in 1540, Agadir grew into a colourful and prosperous port and became newsworthy in 1911 when a German gunboat, the Panther, sailed into the bay as a protest against the division of North Africa between the Spanish and French.
Morocco gained independence from the French in 1956, an event which was closely followed in Agadir by the tragic earthquake of 1960.
The city, which has been rebuilt to represent the ‘new nation’, is blessed by fine sandy beaches overlooked by luxurious hotels and a great selection of cafés and restaurants.
Please note that vendors in the souks can be very persistent and eager to make a sale.
A volcanic island designated a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, Lanzarote’s dramatic landscapes were shaped by an explosive past.
Today, its pretty beaches and virtual absence of rain together with duty-free shopping make the island an extremely desirable destination.
The main port and capital, Arrecife, is a pleasant town with a modern seafront and colourful gardens.
Outside the capital there is plenty to explore, from the dazzling white salt flats of Janubio and the rugged terrain of Fire Mountain to the eerie caves of Los Verdes and an array of unspoilt fishing villages scattered around the coast.
The island is home to a great selection of restaurants and local specialities including garbanzos compuestos – a chickpea stew; papas arrugadas – potatoes with carrots, peas, ham and green pepper; and of course, plenty of fresh seafood.
Please note that those planning to participate in one of the shore excursions from this port may need to take an early lunch on board ship to suit the excursion schedules.
