Scenic Tour and Old Town (Tour D)
LA CORUNA, SPAIN
From the pier we will board our awaiting coach to begin our panoramic tour, passing by the Gardens of Los Cantones which was built on reclaimed land.

We will pass by the San Anton Castle, located along the seafront promenade, which now houses the Archaeological Museum.

-
Santiago de Compostela - La Coruna (Tour B)
LA CORUNA, SPAIN

-
A Taste of Cadiz & Jerez
CADIZ, SPAIN
Since the discovery of America, Cadiz has been a gateway to the New World and a bridge between Europe and Africa. The city, which is considered to be Spain’s oldest town, is African in appearance and immensely intriguing – a cluster of narrow streets opening onto small charming squares. -
Seville
CADIZ, SPAIN
Seville provides the most universal picture of the spirit of Spain as a whole because of its wealth of art and architecture, its attractive urban layout and its graceful inhabitants. There are few cities with such special delights as La Giralda, the Almohad Tower with a Christian crown, Alcazar, the Mudejar Palace full of medieval legends, and the cathedral, which is the third largest in size in the Christian world. -
White Villages of Andalucia
CADIZ, SPAIN
On this tour we venture inland to a survivor of the Middle Ages and one of the most unspoilt villages of Spain, Medina Sidona. It is as though time forgot this little village, with its cobblestone streets, red-tiled white buildings dotted along the hillside, Gothic church, Moorish gate and steep alleyways. -

Wild Coast Scenic Tour (Tour A)

We can enjoy the magnificent view of the city and harbour from Alto do Parque Belvedere.

Magical Marrakech - Casablanca (Tour C)
CASABLANCA, MOROCCO
If we only take one excursion during our cruise, this should be it! The ancient city of Marrakech, which was founded in 1062, is located where the Atlas Mountains meet the Sahara. The name Marrakech itself conjures up visions of colourful markets bustling with people, fortune-tellers, street acrobats and peddlers. They are all here, surrounded by reddish-brown walls, palm trees and the high mountains towering through the haze. Marrakech remains one of the truly magical and exotic places left in the world.
Black Prince
Where better to discover a relaxing mood than aboard Black Prince, a byword for a traditional style of cruising born in a more elegant and unhurried age.
Black Prince's classic cruising formula continues to earn her a growing following of both regular and new admirers. Described as 'a little ship with a big heart and soul', she has the ability to slip into small harbours so often overlooked by larger ships, and combines a fun approach to cruising, whilst upholding the traditions of a bygone, more refined era.
*Note: Black Prince has a totally smoke free indoors environment. Smoking will only be permitted on cabin balconies and on specially designated areas of deck space.
