About the cruise

The Canary Islands and the garden paradise of Madeira are filled with more sun, sea, sand and stunning scenery than you could imagine. You’ll find dramatic volcanic landscapes, seemingly endless pine forests, exotic flora and fauna and spectacular golden beaches blessed with year-round sunshine. Yet on this glorious 13 night cruise with Ventura, you’ll find each island is unique.

Madeira is famed for its scenic splendours, stunning clifftop waterfalls and flora-covered mountains, while volcanic Gran Canaria boasts rolling sand dunes and a cosmopolitan and prosperous port – Las Palmas. Tenerife, the largest of the Canaries, is dominated by the giant Mount Teide and La Palma offers you Santa Cruz, one of the prettiest harbours among all the islands.
Then, you’re transported to the quiet beauty of 12th century seaside city Cadiz, followed by the charms of cosmopolitan Lisbon. Finally, you’ll enjoy a full day at Vigo, Spain’s premier fishing port. The historic heart of this beautiful medieval city is worth an exploration and it’s also filled with wonderful restaurants. As you sail home, you’ll enjoy one more leisurely day at sea to make the most of everything Ventura has to offer.
