Southampton, UK

The vibrant port city of Southampton has always had a rich history in seafaring and is still a popular embarkation port for cruises today.

La Coruna, Spain

The name of Coruña's cruise dock - Transatlantic Quay - reflects its location on the northwestern tip of the Iberian Peninsular making it the closest European port to New York. 

Leixoes (tours to Porto) , Portugal

Oporto is an enchanting, historic city with Roman ramparts and Parisian-style squares. But it's best known for its port wine - to which the city gave its name.

Tangiers, Morocco

Tangier is located just 20 miles from Spain across from the Strait of Gibraltar. A bustling city, filled with shops, beaches and historical landmarks.

Valletta, Malta

The fortifications at Malta's Grand Harbour speak volumes about her past, indeed her reputation for valour during the Second World war earned her the George Cross.

Messina, Italy

An earthquake in 1908 flattened much of the original town, but the Sicilian cruise port Messina bounced back and it has since enhanced one of its major surviving attractions - the Duomo.

Salerno, Italy

Along the rocky cliff face along the Tyrrhenian Sea is the lively city of Salerno, its white-washed buildings piled higgledy-piggledy on top of each other, looking almost ready to topple into the sea.&nbsp;

Civitavecchia (for Rome) , Italy

Standing in the Colosseum, visiting Vatican City and tossing a coin in the Trevi Fountain can be experienced in the Eternal City of Rome, reached from your Italian cruise port Civitavecchia.

Ajaccio, France

Napoleon was born here and, if you did not know that before, it would only take a few minutes after cruising into Ajaccio to cotton on as 'Boneys' name and likeness is everywhere. 

Alicante, Spain

Built around a natural harbour, the main city and cruise port on Spain's Costa Blanca, Alicante, is also a top beach resort in its own right.

Lisbon, Portugal

Views of the Portuguese capital come as your ship cruises along the Tagus River. You pass the Belem Tower and the Monument to the Discoveries before arriving at the Lisbon cruise terminal.
