Guests on Saga’s new luxury boutique ship Spirit of Discovery can immerse themselves in flamenco dancing, Spanish speaking and paella-making during The Chic Mediterranean cruise in October 2019.

 The sunshine, the art and the culture place the Mediterranean’s western coasts among the most glamorous holiday destinations and Spirit of Discovery explores a selection of the best on this stylish cruise.  Highlights include Spain’s sun-blessed costas and the French Riviera’s breathtaking Côte d’Azur with visits to Barcelona, St Tropez, Valencia, Gibraltar, Malaga, Cartagena, Ibiza, Majorca, Toulon and Ferrol.

During the 18-night sailing from Southampton, art-lovers can explore the haunts of Cézanne, Picasso and Gaudi, as well as enjoying the street art of Valencia and, in Palma, Majorca, meet local painters and sculptors.

Tours include a recital on the Rock of Gibraltar by acclaimed pianist Aaron Monteverde, a visit to a Spanish liqueur factory, a chance to explore Ibiza’s countryside by 4X4 or 2CV, and an eight-kilometre walk along Malaga’s stunning Caminito del Rey, while learning about local flora, wildlife and geology.

A late-night mooring on Ibiza offers guests the chance to experience its heady nightlife or simply appreciate the dazzling lights from the comfort of the beautiful 999-guest ship which has a balcony for every cabin, a choice of speciality restaurants, two pools, a spa, and a theatre.
