    • Depart: 18:00:00
    Portugal's capital city located on the banks of the Tagus, only a few kilometres from the Atlantic coast, is a city of exceptionally rich cultural diversity. At the mouth of the river harbour, two UNESCO World Heritage monuments stand proud, Jeronimos Monastery and Belem Tower. The Alfama hillside is also worth visiting: known for its fado bars and its Moorish streets, this district is the oldest one of the city and one of the most typical. Not far from there, Chiado's elegant streets are home to big fashion labels and are an invitation to a bit of luxury shopping. ...

    Located at the mouth of the Douro River, the port of Leixoes lies less than 10 kilometres from Porto. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the historic centre of Porto is worth a visit for its famous Ribeira district, the metallic silhouette of the Dom Luis Bridge looming over its ancient houses, richly decorated Baroque churches, and Soares dos Reis National Museum. The Sao Bento Station is also interesting for its typically Portuguese decoration, using azulejos, blue square ceramic tiles decorated with geometric patterns or figurative scenes. ...

    Talmont-sur-Gironde, France
    • Talmont-sur-Gironde, France
    You will sail along the coast to discover the remarkable Meschers caves, natural cavities carved into the chalk cliffs that loom over the Gironde estuary. Enlarged by man in the 19th century, they became troglodyte dwellings, some of which are still inhabited today. Punctuating the coastline of the Charente region with their poetic presence, the carrelets, fragile-looking huts on stilts fitted with a square fishing net, can be seen along the Saintonge coastline. The beautiful town of Talmont-sur-Gironde is to be found at the heart of the fortified city founded by Edward I, King of England and Duke of Aquitaine. The Sainte-Radegonde church, a jewel of Romanesque art, dating from the 12th century, looms majestically over the estuary. ...

    Douarnenez, France

    Nestling in the hollow of a pretty bay in the Finistere department that smells nicely of sea spray, Douarnenez bears both its Breton identity and its reputation as an important sardine port as a source of pride. The surrounding grandiose nature, with its wild coastlines and fine sandy beaches, offers a fine setting with the crystal-clear waters of the ocean. You'll enjoy a walk to take in the atmosphere of its lively quays and discover fishermen's houses of picturesque charm as you stroll through its small streets.

    Cherbourg, France
    • Cherbourg, France
    Lying at the tip of the Cotentin peninsula, between the Channel and the bocage, Cherbourg is the figurehead of a wild and secret region, dear to the heart of Jacques Prevert. The installation of La Cite de la Mer maritime museum in 2002, within the former transatlantic terminal, rejuvenated the maritime and military port. You'll enjoy the ambiance of this charming town, with its shale facades, which was celebrated by Jacques Demy in The Umbrellas of Cherbourg. Your exploration will also bring you to the foot of the Chateau de Vauville, famed for its extraordinary Botanical Gardens. Like an oasis, this small southern paradise is home to more than 1,000 tropical species collected by the family of Eric Pellerin, botanist and perfumer since 1948. ...

    A treasure of the Cote Fleurie, Honfleur is located on the edge of Crique de Rouen in Normandy. You will no doubt admire the historical ships moored in its old port. With its tall slate-covered houses, the quays provide a great setting for a very nice walk. In the streets behind the harbour, you will see many timber houses. These picturesque places were the cradle of several pre-impressionist painters. You can see their works in the Eugene Boudin Museum. Exhibited works represent scenes of medieval streets and the coastline as it used to be, as illustrated by the Butin Beach and its lush green hillsides. ...
