Day 4
Bilbao
Bilbao, once an industrial heartland, has transformed into a hub of modern architecture and art, exemplified by the iconic Guggenheim Museum. The climate here is temperate and inviting, with mild temperatures that make year-round visits pleasant. Cruise lines such as Norwegian and Holland America offer excursions that allow travelers to explore not just the famous museum, but also lesser-known areas like the historic Casco Viejo, or Old Quarter, providing a more rounded glimpse into Bilbao's rejuvenation and traditions. Interestingly, Bilbao is also known for its unique linguistic contribution, being a stronghold of the Basque language, which predates most European languages and adds a layer of mystique to this vibrant city.
Day 5
Nestled at the southern tip of the Iberian Peninsula, Gibraltar beckons with its legendary past, guarding the entrance to the Mediterranean like a steadfast sentinel. Its iconic Rock, a natural fortress steeped in myth and history, towers majestically over the sparkling waters below. The Mediterranean climate offers temperate winters and balmy summers, inviting exploration year-round. Beyond the duty-free shopping and bustling main street, Gibraltar unveils hidden treasures, from the labyrinthine tunnels of the Great Siege to the Moorish Castle perched atop its rocky perch. As one of the last remaining British Overseas Territories, Gibraltar's blend of British and Mediterranean influences creates a truly unique destination

The North District of Gibraltar unfolds like a chapter from a historic novel, offering a glimpse into a bygone era of naval supremacy and strategic importance. Its rugged landscape, framed by the imposing Rock of Gibraltar, creates a dramatic backdrop for exploration. The climate here, tempered by the Mediterranean Sea, provides a pleasant ambiance year-round, perfect for leisurely strolls through quaint streets lined with colorful houses.

Reviews Magnificent Ship
Magnificent Ship
We arrived in Athens for a 7 night cruise, on arrival at the ship it look so impressive. We have sailed with Princess on other occasions, but this ship was a monster, with 30 different places to drink or eat. It was very clean and the staff always hapoy and willing to assist.7 nights does not give you enough time to actually use all the facilities, with over 4000 guests, it never felt over crowded. Thanks to all the crew for a fabulous cruise.

Reviews Brilliant
Brilliant
This was our very first cruise, and the Sun Princess was a wonderful ship to be on. Our room steward could not do more to help us with little requests and advice. The food in the eatery was great, and even in the main dining room we never struggled to get a table even without pre-booking. Definitely recommend, the staff could not do enough for us
