Europe by Sea: A New View of the Old World

Designed to give experienced travelers a new insightful view of Europe, our European cruise through seven countries--Denmark, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, France, Spain and Portugal--blends authentic experiences with dramatic coastal landscapes. Best accessed by sea rather than land, these coastal towns will be “portals” through which we’ll pass into history, art, architecture and cuisines accompanied by our Expedition Team.

“Far from the madding crowds, our noble expedition ship noses into quaint ports and calls at island communities that regular cruise ships simply cannot visit. On this amazing cultural cruise we anchor in remote places like St.-Jean-de-Luz, Ile d’Aix and Islas Cies, which are the envy of large ships.” This fragment from Expedition Historian David Barnes’ report shows why you’ll see and share a very different Europe from the one you already know.
