A wide range of optional shore excursions are available at each inspiring location, so you can see the best of the natural beauty and fine golden beaches of Portimão, enjoy a memorable visit to Casablanca, and explore the wealth of wellpreserved historical landmarks in Cadiz, the most ancient city still standing in Western Europe.
