<p>Our eight-night voyage around the Iberian Peninsula, from Lisbon to Barcelona, offers glimpses of the past and future in equal measure. Departing the old-world cobbled streets of Lisbon, we sail first to the Algarve to relax on the beautiful beaches of one of today's favorite seaside resorts, Portimão. Crossing the border to Spain, one of Europe's oldest cities, Cadiz, comes into view and the point is made about how close we are to the continent of Africa with a hop across the water to Tangier in Morocco. Sailing on to Málaga, there's time to see modern masterpieces by Picasso in the museum in his name. A day at sea heralds arrival in Valencia, a city renowned for its futuristic architecture, before our voyage concludes in Barcelona.</p>

Explore the countries and cities where empires once ruled and where monuments to their histories still stand amidst progressive hubs of culture and artistry.

Private Full-Day Van & English-Speaking Guide 

<p>Enjoy a panoramic drive through Lisbon, where you will explore the city&#39;s most iconic landmarks while traversing its historic hills. Begin your journey with a drive through the vibrant downtown area and along the grand Liberty Avenue, leading to the top of Edward VII Park. From this vantage point, enjoy sweeping views of the city&#39;s skyline and the shimmering Tagus River.</p><p>Your first stop will take you across the river to the impressive Christ the King monument. En route, you&#39;ll pass beneath the majestic arches of the 18th-century Lisbon Aqueduct and cross the iconic 25th of April Bridge. From the monument&#39;s pedestal, take in stunning panoramic views of Lisbon and the Estoril Coastline.</p><p>As we return to Lisbon, our journey continues to the historic Belém district, a hub of Portugal&#39;s Age of Discoveries. This is where the famous caravels once set sail during the 15th and 16th centuries. From the comfort of the bus, marvel at the striking Belém Tower and the Monument to the Discoveries. After a guided introduction, you&#39;ll have time to explore the Jerónimos Monastery, a UNESCO World Heritage site, at your leisure.</p><p>No visit to Belém would be complete without a stop at a traditional café to savor the world-renowned 'Pastel de Nata,' a custard pastry.</p><p></p>

Fado and the sounds of Lisbon 

The white contour of a church on a hilltop, the narrow streets of the old fishermen and tradesmen quarter, the presence of the sea and the immense beach known as Paria da Roch identify the character of Portimao. The old town is dominated by the architecture of the late 19th and 20th centuries: houses boasting wrought-iron balconies, ornate stonework around the windows and doors, balustrades of stone and tile-covered ceramics and walls. This southern Portuguese port is the gateway to many historic towns of the Algarve region. The town offers a rich heritage of historical monuments and the eternal natural beauty of the Ria de Alvor. Portimao is also known for its extraordinary Portuguese cuisine. To savour the spirit of Portimao, there is nothing better than to sit in the shade of the trees in the gardens of Manuel Bivar, to watch the fishing boats sail by and to walk through streets and squares that exude the ambience of an active, hard-working town.

<p>From the pier of Portim&atilde;o, we will reach Silves, the old Moorish capital of the Algarve, where most of the national monuments were built with local red stone.</p><br><p>You will walk through the streets that still maintain an old Moorish urban layout. Admire buildings with azulejos (Portuguese tiles) covering the fa&ccedil;ades, not to mention the &#39;medina,&#39; the largest castle in Algarve. Silves&#39; castle is the best military monument from the Islamic period, reconstructed after the earthquake of 1755. It has a deep well (approximately 60m) and once housed the old Moorish 'Alca&ccedil;ova' (fortress) immortalized by the 'Palace of the Varandas'.</p><br><p>Next to the castle is the Old Cathedral, built with local red stone. It is the most notable temple of Gothic architecture, built after the conquest of the Algarve during the 13th century, probably occupying the place of an old mosque.</p><br><p>The monument was partly destroyed by the 1755 earthquake and reconstructed afterward.</p><br><p>Free time to walk around or to sit down and enjoy the local atmosphere.</p><br><p>Your last stop will be at a local wine estate where you will learn about the process of wine production. And what a better way to finish than to taste the wine accompanied by local appetizers for a perfect combination.</p>

<p>Visit the castle of Silves and the cathedral where you will get an idea of how life was centuries ago and how history is still reflected in the culture.&nbsp;</p>

Silves & the Moorish Inheritance with Wine Pairing

One of the reasons for its importance is its remarkable diversity of influences.</div><div>In Moroccan dishes, one can trace the country&#39;s long history of colonizers and immigrants who have left their mark in more than one way. The cuisine of the first inhabitants, the Berbers, still exists today in the staple dishes like tagine and couscous.</div><div>The Arab invasion brought new spices, nuts and dried fruits, and the sweet and sour combinations that we see in dishes like tagine with dates and lamb. The Moors introduced olives, olive juice and citrus while the Jewish-Moors left behind their sophisticated preserving techniques that we see in the frequent use of preserved lemons, pickles, etc.</div><div>The Ottoman Empire introduced barbeque (kebabs) to Moroccan cuisine. The French colony, although short-lived compared to reign of some of these other empires, left behind a culture of cafes, pastries, and even wine.</div><div>Over time, cooks in the kitchens of the five royal cities (Fez, Marrakesh, Meknes, Tangier and Rabat) have developed and perfected the dishes that blend each of these distinct tastes. Every Moroccan dish has its place in society and varies with the market, the season, and the region.</div><div>You will learn the secrets to preparing a variety of Moroccan specialties during this memorable cooking class and lunch at the Blue Door Hotel Cooking Classroom.</div><div>Our first stop will be the Grand Socco, home to a cavalcade of color, charm, street musicians, a fish market, scenic handicrafts, and spices.</div><div>From here, proceed to the Blue Door Classroom. Your arrival is greeted by refreshment (mint tea) followed by a cookery lesson. Learn the spices and methods used in the creation of a variety of Moroccan entrees and desserts as well as baking Moroccan bread. After the cooking class, enjoy the marvelous dishes that you prepared.</div><div>At the end of your cooking class, you will be receiving a certificate of success.</div><div>Depart to the quayside with the knowledge needed to impress at your next dinner party.</div>

<p>Receive an immersive food-and tea-based Experience based on storytelling, authentic sharing, and household techniques in making Moroccan bread from scratch, mint tea, and dishes like Chicken Tagine.</p>

Cooking Experience at Blue Door Cooking School

<div>It&#39;s always tea o&#39;clock in Morocco! Mint tea is the ubiquitous beverage here -deals are sealed, marriages are made, and fates are forged over it, but how to make it well remains a mystery to outsiders. Just add water. Certainly not! For Moroccans, mint tea is as important as Earl Grey is for the British and green tea is for the Chinese.</div><div>Today, we will learn the secrets of crafting perfect peppermint tea and enjoy it with bread fresh from the frans. </div><div><br data-mce-bogus='1'></div><div>Head to the Grand Socco - the souk or marketplace that is the hub of Tangier. Although there are fewer vendors here than back in the old days, it is still home to a cavalcade of color, charm, street musicians, a fish market, handicrafts, and spices. It is organized chaos and, thus, a fun and frenetic place from which to begin your Tangier experience.</div><div><br data-mce-bogus='1'></div><div>Proceed to Blue Door Cuisine, where we are taught how to prepare a wonderful cup of Moroccan mint tea and how to bake traditional bread. A certified chef keeps the lesson lighthearted and involves each participant in the &#39;chores&#39;. This is where you roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty, following step-by-step instructions to prepare your own batch of Moroccan bread dough. Once our dough is ready, we will visit the strategically located communal wood-burning oven (a ferran or frans) - a down-home authentic Moroccan experience. Until the 1980s, almost all Moroccan families made their own bread, and the frans is where the residents would mingle as they waited on their bread and pastries to bake.</div><div><br data-mce-bogus='1'></div><div>Fran was found in every neighborhood, and baked dozens of loafs at once many times a day. These can still be found and are still used by the local people in the old Medinas. As there were so many breads baking together, anything placed in the oven was marked with a rubber stamp, so each person would know which loaf was his/her own. This is the real deal and is a rather elaborate step-by-step preparation that pleases the eyes and the palate, so you will be happy to know that you are invited to savor both your own bread and the mint tea afterwards. Local condiments and handmade Moroccan cookies of the finest quality are also offered for tasting.</div><div><br data-mce-bogus='1'></div><div>You will also taste other Moroccan signature dishes which will be displayed at Blue Door.</div>

<p>Enjoy a culinary experience in Tangier during a bread and tea class. You&#39;ll learn how to prepare traditional mint tea and make Moroccan bread in a community oven, known as a 'fouran,' under the guidance of a local host and teacher. Plus, gain insight into the history and traditions of bread in Moroccan culture and visit the local souk to browse the fresh ingredients.</p>

Tangier&#39;s Nature

<div>As many Moroccans will proudly attest, the country has a very long tradition of religious tolerance.</div><div>In Tangier you will visit three examples of live religions that co-exist in the same city.</div><div>Your first stop will be Saint Andrew&#39;s church, which is built on land given to the government of the Queen of Great Britain - Queen Victoria - by the Sultan Moulay Hassan I in 1883. (Century earlier Morocco had been the first country in the world to recognize the independence of the United States of America).</div><div>The foundation stone was laid in 1894 and the church was consecrated in 1905. It is open to all denominations and has a history of distinguished ministry in a city which has long been the crossroads of three great religions.</div><div>The church is built in authentic Moorish style, a mark of respect to its host country. Workers in marble, wood and stucco came from Fez to enrich its outstanding interior. They carved the capitals of the columns and made the inscription of the Lord&#39;s Prayer in Arabic round the chancel arch. They created the exquisite ceiling of the chancel, made up of hundreds of small pieces of cedar wood, and the alcove at the east end of the church behind the nave is carved with texts from the Koran, reminiscent of the mihrab of a mosque. It is, to our knowledge, the only Christian church in the world with references to the Coran.</div><div>Many interesting memorials can be seen around the walls and also in the churchyard, a haven of peace and tranquility. Look out for the graves of the young men who lost their lives in military missions near here during World War II.</div><div>Your next place to visit (from the exterior only) is the Mosque of the Kasbah district which is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful in the Medina of Tangier.</div><div>This mosque stands out not only because it is the oldest in the city but also because it has a unique and precious octagonal minaret, also it has a typical entrance with a beautiful, coffered ceiling of brown colors. Although it is a pity as in all Morocco that entry is prohibited to non-Muslims.</div><div>Continuing with the visit, you will arrive to a dead-end street off the rue des Synagogues in the Beni Idir quarter of the Tangier medina, the synagogue Moshe Nahon was constructed in the 19th century by himself, a prominent educator and scholar from an influential Jewish family in Tangier. The synagogue ceased activity in the second half to the 20th century, and subsequently fell into disrepair until its restoration in 1994. It now functions as a museum.</div><div>The prayer room of the synagogue is accessible via a small courtyard at the end of the entrance corridor. The interior is elaborately decorated in an Andalusian style. Carved stucco walls are decorated with a repeating motif featuring ornamental embedded columns, trilobe arches, and arabesques with floral and geometric motifs. Perhaps most remarkable is the Arabic calligraphy repeated in three medallions vertically aligned below the superior lobe.</div><div>You will walk to a local restaurant for refreshments before returning to the pier.</div>

<p>Spend a memorable Half Day tangier to the historic center of Tangiers in Morocco. Enjoy the services of a local guide, stroll through the bustling alleyways of the medina  the kasbah to discover the most important corners of the historic center.</p><p>You will step inside the Moshe Nahon one of the most beautiful and impressive Synagogue with a stunning view.</p>
