Portugal Cruises

Enjoy the sun-kissed shores of the Iberian Peninsula with a Portugal cruise

Embark on a memorable cruise holiday to Portugal, where the charm of the Iberian Peninsula meets the Atlantic Ocean. Experience the rich history, stunning landscapes and flavoursome cuisine of this vibrant country.

One of the highlights of a Portugal cruise is a visit to Lisbon, the captivating capital. Visit the iconic Belém Tower and Jerónimos Monastery, both UNESCO World Heritage sites. Wander the cobbled streets of Alfama, the medieval old town. Savour irresistible pastéis de nata, Portuguese custard tarts, in the morning and enjoy a glass of crisp white wine in the evening to get the true taste of Lisbon. 

Leixoes is the gateway to the enchanting city of Oporto. Known for its historic centre and vibrant riverside district, Oporto is a haven for food and wine enthusiasts. On the Douro River, terraced vineyards produce world-renowned Port wine. A popular way to spend your time here is by taking a guided tour of historic wine cellars and sampling this fortified wine.

Why not go further afield on a Madeira cruise? The Portuguese island of Madeira is known for its lush landscapes and unique microclimate. The vibrant botanical gardens thrive in the warm climate. The dramatic cliffs are home to popular hikes with inspiring vistas. And, of course, its famous fortified wine makes for the perfect souvenir.
