Canaries Winter Adventure Cruise
Escape to winter sunshine and dramatic lava landscapes visiting the jewels of six of the Canary Islands on this fantastic leisurely cruise.
Your Itinerary
DAY 1: UK - Tenerife.
Fly to Tenerife where you will be met and transferred to your cruise ship, MS Belle de l'Adriatique, for embarkation. (D)
DAY 2: Santa Cruz de Tenerife.
Tenerife is an island of two halves, with a dry southern region of golden beaches and a cooler north of dramatic cliffs, black-sand coves and lush plantations. Today, why not join the optional excursion to Puerto de la Cruz, a charming resort with a colonial district of cobbled plazas and wooden-balconied Canarian houses, all crowned by a medieval castle. Alternatively, enjoy time at leisure to explore this bustling town, perhaps taking in a museum or relax on one of its many beaches before returning to your ship for lunch and sailing for Lanzarote. (B, L, D)
DAY 3: Arrecife, Lanzarote.
Lanzarote offers sandy beaches, palm-filled valleys and pretty whitewashed towns. Today showcases the major attractions of this constantly surprising island with several optional excursions. Delve into the north, visiting the old-world capital of Teguise, traditional village of Los Valles and La Corona volcano followed by an optional afternoon trip to Timanfaya National Park. This haunting place is home to Fire Mountain, whose slopes are sprinkled with calderas, craters and cones. Tonight, relax on board as your ship sails to Gran Canaria. (B, L, D)
DAY 4: Las Palmas, Gran Canaria.
Gran Canaria is known as a 'continent in miniature' thanks to its ever-changing landscapes of craggy cliffs, fertile valleys and shimmering dunes - all formed by volcanic activity. This morning, perhaps see more of the island on the optional excursion to the Valley of Angostura and Bandama Crater. Everything starts at the house of Christopher Columbus in Las Palmas, the capital, where the explorer lived in 1492. After visiting the Artiles Caves, continue to Bandama - a 1,000-metre wide, bowl-shaped crater. This afternoon, why not discover more on the optional excursion to the Basilica of Teror and Arucas? After admiring the botanical gardens and lava-built cathedral of Arucas, visit a colonial whitewashed church in the pretty village of Teror before enjoying dinner on board this evening as you cruise to El Hierro. (B, L, D)
DAY 5: Puerto de la Estaca, El Hierro.
The smallest Canary island, the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve of El Hierro looks and feels like another world, with dramatic cliffs, dense woodlands and volcanic scenery. This morning, you may want to join the optional excursion to the capital, Valverde and spectacular El Golfo Valley, which finishes with some wine and cheese tasting. After lunch back on board, relax this afternoon as you cruise to La Palma, arriving this evening. (B, L, D)
DAY 6: Santa Cruz de La Palma.
The most northwesterly of the Canaries, beautiful La Palma is known for its tropical rainforests, deep pine woods and jagged shoreline. Today’s optional excursion showcases its highlights with visits to the Church of The Virgin of the Snows, San Antonio volcanic crater and a bodega to taste some local wines. Later, reboard your ship for lunch and an afternoon cruise to La Gomera. (B, L, D)
DAY 7: San Sebastián, La Gomera.
Nestled next to Tenerife, little-visited La Gomera is the hidden jewel of the Canaries with wooded valleys, remote villages and rocky ravines. Grab the opportunity to explore on an optional excursion, taking in the idyllic Valley of Hermigua, lovely colonial, red cliff-backed town of Agula and misty evergreen forests in the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Garajonay National Park. Return to the ship for lunch and cruise back to Tenerife, before enjoying an evening gala dinner and music. (B, L, D)
DAY 8: Tenerife - UK.
After breakfast, disembark your ship and transfer to the airport for your flight to the UK or extend your stay in Tenerife. (B)
