      Our Western Europe cruise tour takes you from Lisbon to London, introducing you to coastal treasures, culinary delights and rich history along the way.

      Cultural journeys and expeditions

      Legacies of the “Age of Discovery”  in the heart of Lisbon… rabelo boats and timeless port wine traditions in Porto, where the Douro meets the Atlantic… in pilgrims’ footsteps on the Way of St. James… the wines (and the joys) of Bordeaux… royal pursuits at Hampton Court and London town…

      Bookended by two nights in a choice of premier hotels in Lisbon and London, this 13-day small ship cruise aboard Ponant’s state-of-the-art Explorer ship, Le Dumont d’Urville, charms with Portuguese palaces and port, storytelling tiles and storied sites, Spanish pilgrimages and pintxos, French wines, and English cultural gems.

      Santiago de Compostela

      Pilgrimage Sites of Santiago de Compostela

      Believed by many to be the burial place of the apostle St. James, the city of Santiago de Compostela, capital of Galicia in northwestern spain, has been one of the most significant Catholic pilgrimage sites for nearly a millennium; after Rome and Jerusalem, it’s considered among the holiest cities in the Christian world. On your visit, you’ll walk part of the “Way of St. James,” discovering some of the revered sites, churches and shrines that pilgrims have visited throughout the centuries, and the sacred 13th-century Cathedral Santiago de Compostela.

      Pintxos tasting tours

      Sampling pintxos in Bilbao and San Sebastián

      Pintxos – the traditional tasty treats typically enjoyed as appetizers or snacks in bars throughout northern Spain and the Basque country – are so named for the “spike” (a skewer or a toothpick) that holds their ingredients to a slice of bread, and distinguishes them from their tapas cousins. You’ll have opportunities to sample some of the best pintxos in town on tasting tours with local experts in Bilbao and San Sebastián.

      Dinner at Château Kirwan in Bordeaux

      A Tauck Exclusive dinner at a historic winery in Bordeaux

      The roots of Château Kirwan, a historic estate winery in the Margaux appellation of France’s Bordeaux region, go back to its establishment in the 18th century by Irish shopkeeper Mark Kirwan following his marriage to the daughter of English merchant Sir John Collingwood. Kirwan’s vineyards flourished, producing wine classified as “second rank grand crux.” Since 1925, the winery has been operated by the Schÿler family, whose eighth generation has brought Château Kirwan into the 21st century… where you’ll experience it firsthand with a walk through its cellars and a Tauck Exclusive dinner.
