Spirited Singapore in Southeast Asia is the world’s only sovereign island city-state. The nation’s contemporary identity as a city-island hybrid stems from its colonial history as a British-controlled trading territory, founded by Sir Stamford Raffles in 1819. Today, an amalgamation of multiracial influences give rise to Singapore’s diverse culture - primarily a fusion of Malay, Indian, Chinese and Western traditions. This rich multiculturalism is one of Singapore’s top selling points, drawing in visitors from all over the world who are keen to explore the island’s divergent neighbourhoods, from the colourful pagodas of Chinatown to the ornate temples of Little India. Singapore’s natural landscape is as varied as its culture, with stark contrasts between the luscious, tropical Singapore Botanic Garden and the perfectly sculpted, futuristic “Supertrees” of Gardens by the Bay. A quirky mishmash of old and new, Singapore is without a doubt one of Asia’s most unique and memorable islands with which travellers cannot help but fall in love along a Singapore cruise.
Lanzarote is well known for its perfect year-round climate, sandy beaches, and volcanic landscape. Located off the west coast of Africa, the administered Spanish island acts as the perfect cruise destination for travellers yearning to explore, relax, and absorb an unspoilt culture.
Blessed with crystal-clear waters and a vivid array of aquamarine life, Lanzarote provides excellent opportunities for scuba divers and watersports enthusiasts. Water-based activities are hugely popular, with specialist centres in Puerto del Carmen and Playa Blanca offering jetski rental, parascending, flyboarding, and banana ski bus experiences.
For those who wish to venture inland, the island's unique avant-garde architectural designs (straight from the intricate mind of Spanish artist-architect César Manrique) and whitewashed homes will provide food for the soul.
Manrique's influence also helped to create many of Lanzarote's immersive cultural attractions. Jameos del Agua, a series of underground lava caves, and Manrique's former home (known as the Volcano House) remain two of the island's most impressive arty visitor attractions.
Set on seven hills on the banks of the River Tagus, Lisbon has been the capital of Portugal since the 13th century. It is a city famous for its majestic architecture, old wooden trams, Moorish features and more than twenty centuries of history. Following disastrous earthquakes in the 18th century, Lisbon was rebuilt by the Marques de Pombal who created an elegant city with wide boulevards and a great riverfront and square, Praça do Comércio. Today there are distinct modern and ancient sections, combining great shopping with culture and sightseeing in the Old Town, built on the city's terraced hillsides. The distance between the ship and your tour vehicle may vary. This distance is not included in the excursion grades.
Lying near the head of Southampton Water, a peninsula between the estuaries of the Rivers Test and Itchen, Southampton is Britain’s largest cruise port. It has been one of England’s major ports since the Middle Ages, when it exported wool and hides from the hinterland and imported wine from Bordeaux. The city suffered heavy damage during World War Two and as a result the centre has been extensively rebuilt, but there are still some interesting medieval buildings including the Bargate, one of the finest city gatehouses in England.
