When it comes to cultural immersion, Spain has a way of drawing you in – through the storied architecture, the renowned cuisine, the fabulous wine, the music and dance. It’s a fabled cultural icon – and the next European country on your list to become better acquainted with. If you’ve never thought of Spain as a cruise destination, you’re missing out. Regent Seven Seas Cruises invites you to reconsider.
Here is a cruise line that is very practiced at illuminating the wonders of the Iberian Peninsula. In fact, Regent Seven Seas has more than 30 years of experience enchanting guests, delivering the utmost best experiences in Spain.
Guests visit fascinating ports that effortlessly walk the line between ancient and modern, and experience enriching excursions to make meaningful connections to the Spanish culture – the flamenco, the wine cellars, the tapas bars, the natural wonders, UNESCO monuments and more. And the best part of this is that shore excursions – hundreds of them – are all part of the all-inclusive fares with Regent.
An aura of high spirits
In Barcelona , everywhere you look is a work of art. The Antoni Gaudi architecture alone is breathtaking: the Sagrada Familia Cathedral, Park Güell and Casa Milà. The city is also home to the Picasso Museum and the Miro Foundation. And from the widest boulevards to the narrowest alleyways, hospitality rules – finding a way to your heart through your stomach.
And on par? Valencia, a coastal paradise as beautiful as the spectacular paintings and sculptures you will find there. The city is also a study in dramatic architecture, from the bold, modern edifices to the historic 13th-century center. Let’s not forget the often-overlooked Cadiz, which at one time was one of the most important port cities in the world. Visitors delight in the lively plazas, aromatic parkland, street markets, cathedrals and palaces – a peaceful, and palm-treed retreat.
Regent cruises to the Mediterranean Sea also include the Spanish island of Palma de Mallorca , noted for its Gothic Cathedral, steep cliffs and olive groves, along with its chic, yacht-crowd nightlife.
