Highlights
Your cruise on the EUROPA 2 begins in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. The next morning, the smallest of the Canary Islands, El Hierro awaits. Opt for some active exploration of the hiking paradise of El Hierro* or choose the comfort of a scenic tour*. Enjoy the hustle and bustle of Santa Cruz, or get to know the diverse facets of Tenerife with an excursion to Teide National Park* or a visit to La Orotava and Puerto de la Cruz* in the enchanting north of the island. La Palma is waiting to welcome you to the small port city of Santa Cruz de la Palma on the edge of a mighty volcanic crater that stretches out before you like a giant amphitheatre. This picturesque place has a variety of shops and a charming old town with typical flower-filled balconies. The next day, enjoy the diverse vegetation of La Gomera with an island tour* or explore one of the world’s oldest rainforests on a hike through the enchanted forest*.
After so many rich experiences, you can look forward to a relaxed day on board before you arrive in Funchal on Madeira. Be amazed by the flower island and its diverse plant life. Discover the most beautiful aspects of the island of flowers*, or opt for a levada hike* along the typical irrigation system through the stunning natural landscape. A tour of Funchal by tukxi* is a unique experience and a ride in one of these three-wheeled electric cars with open sides is an innovative and comfortable way to explore. Lush ranges of hills, volcanoes and crystal-clear mountain lakes await you in Ponta Delgada. Choose for yourself how you want to explore Sao Miguel for your own special experience: whether on an all-terrain vehicle tour across the island* with visit to a tea plantation or a tour promising the Lake of Fire, Ribeira Grande, wine and cheese*.
Next follows an idyllic day on Faial. Several thousand sailing boats and yachts come to visit Horta’s harbour each year. Watch whales and dolphins* or see the Capelinhos volcano*. The following two relaxing days at sea offer you plenty of opportunity to say your goodbyes to the EUROPA 2 as it heads to Lisbon. Enjoy what is probably the most beautiful river journey in Europe on the Tagus. Get a taste of the typical Portuguese charm on a walk through the beautiful streets of the old town* or explore the city independently. After one final night on board, your cruise comes to an end in the city of dreams on the Tagus.
* The itinerary depends on official approvals. The organised shore activities are not included in the cruise price and are in the planning stage. All shore activities may be cancelled at short notice, depending on the developments at the time of the cruise. The approval for independent shore visits may also be withdrawn in some destinations.
