Why This Package Is Worth It

Smart Travel, by Portugal Experts

Luís C.

Local Travel Crafter

This isn't just a Canary Islands loop. You get Madeira and Lisbon too.

Most cruises hit Tenerife and Gran Canaria, then head home. This one visits three Canary Islands - Tenerife, Gran Canaria, and Lanzarote - then continues to Madeira and Lisbon. More islands, plus Portugal.

Why Princess Cruises? Princess Cruises gets it right. Great food, spacious cabins, warm service. But you can grab pizza poolside at 2pm or watch movies under the stars. Polished where it matters, relaxed everywhere else.

How Much Time Do You Get on Each Port? Full days in every port. Vigo, Funchal, all three islands, and Lisbon. Real time to explore, not rushed stops.

Flights, Southampton hotels, transfers, and full-board dining included—everything handled.

This isn't just a Canary Islands loop. You get Madeira and Lisbon too.

Most Canary Islands cruises hit Tenerife and Gran Canaria, then head home. This one visits three - Tenerife, Gran Canaria, and Lanzarote - then continues to Madeira and Lisbon. You get more of the islands plus two of Portugal's best stops in one trip.

Why Princess Cruises?

You get the comfort and quality of a premium cruise line without the stiffness. The dining is excellent, the cabins are spacious, and the service feels personal. But you can also grab pizza in your swimsuit at 2 pm or watch a movie on the top deck under the stars. It's polished where it matters, relaxed everywhere else.

How Much Time Do You Get on Each Port?

Enough to matter. Full days in Vigo, Funchal, Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Lanzarote, and Lisbon. Not rushed two-hour stops where you barely make it off the ship. Real time to explore, eat lunch somewhere local, and actually see what makes each place different.

Round-trip flights, hotels before and after the cruise, all transfers, and full-board dining included. Everything arranged.

Your Trip Itinerary

Day 1
Arrival in Southampton, England
Welcome to London! A scheduled transfer will take you from Heathrow Airport (LHR) to your Southampton hotel, where you’ll stay overnight before your cruise departs the following day.

Upon arrival in Southampton, the remainder of the day is at leisure. After check-in at the hotel, time is available to enjoy a gentle introduction to the city.

Suggestion for the day: Southampton Highlights

A short walk through Southampton Old Town reveals medieval walls, historic gateways, and traditional streets, while the nearby Ocean Village Marina offers a relaxed waterfront setting with cafés and restaurants overlooking the harbour. Those wishing to stretch their legs can stroll through Mayflower Park, with views across the port and cruise terminals. The evening is free for dinner and rest, ensuring a relaxed night before embarkation the following day.

Day 4
Vigo, Spain (Getaway to Santiago de Compostela)
From 9 AM to 5 PM

When your ship docks in Vigo, you are just about one hour away from Santiago de Compostela, one of Spain’s most famous historic cities.

Suggestion for the day:

Many guests choose to visit the impressive Santiago de Compostela Cathedral, the final stop of the Camino pilgrimage. Spend time in the main square, wander the old stone streets, and enjoy a traditional Galician lunch before returning to the ship.

If you prefer a relaxed day without traveling to Santiago, Vigo is easy and enjoyable to explore on foot. Start in the old town, known as Casco Vello, with its stone streets and small cafés. Then walk up to Castro Fortress for beautiful views over the harbor and the Atlantic. Stroll along the waterfront promenade, stop for fresh seafood, and try local Galician specialties like octopus or empanada. On clear days, you’ll even spot the Cíes Islands in the distance.

Day 6
Funchal, Madeira Island, Portugal
From 8 AM to 5 PM

When your ship arrives in Funchal, you’re stepping into the lush island of Madeira, known for its mountain views and relaxed coastal atmosphere.

Suggestion for the day:

Begin with a relaxed walk through the old town and along the waterfront. Stop for a coffee, explore the local market, and enjoy the laid-back island atmosphere. Then take the cable car up to visit the beautiful Madeira Botanical Garden, where colorful gardens and sweeping views over the bay make it a highlight of the day.

Overnight on the Cruise
Day 7
Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain
From 8 AM to 10 PM

Welcome to the vibrant port of Santa Cruz de Tenerife, where tree-lined avenues lead to the lively Spain Square. With its exceptional climate, a fusion of tropical beauty, and modern charm, this island gem offers a range of unique experiences.

Here are a few suggestions for your day:

Parque Marítimo César Manrique – A seaside complex with lava-rock pools, palm trees, sunbathing areas, and cafés. Perfect for a laid-back morning.

Castillo de San Juan at Caleta de Negros – A historic lava-stone fortress often called the Black Castle, ideal for photos and coastal views.

Playa de las Teresitas – Golden sand, palm trees, and calm waters make this beach one of the island’s most inviting spots for a relaxing afternoon.

Overnight on the Cruise
Day 8
Las Palmas, Gran Canaria, Canary Islands, Spain
From 8 AM to 10 PM

Gran Canaria offers a wonderful mix of nature, culture, and coastal beauty during your day in port.

Suggestions for your day:

Head inland to the mountain village of Tejeda, where views of the iconic Roque Nublo rise above pine forests and dramatic landscapes.

Prefer the coast? Explore the golden dunes of Maspalomas Dunes, or stay in Las Palmas to stroll along Las Canteras Beach and wander the historic district of Vegueta.

For something different, visit the vineyards of Tafira or take in panoramic views from the volcanic Caldera de Bandama.

Overnight on the Cruise
Day 9
Arrecife de Lanzarote, Canary Islands, Spain
From 8 AM to 5 PM

As your ship arrives in Arrecife, you’re welcomed by whitewashed houses, volcanic landscapes, and the historic Castillo de San Gabriel guarding the harbor.

Suggestion for the day:

You can enjoy a relaxed stroll through town or venture out to explore the island’s dramatic scenery. Visit Timanfaya National Park, where lava fields create an almost lunar landscape. Discover the artistic underground world of Jameos del Agua, designed by César Manrique, or explore the nearby volcanic caves of Cueva de los Verdes.

For a slower pace, head to the fishing village of El Golfo to enjoy fresh seafood by the sea.
