Canary Islands Escape

Day 1 - Falmouth

Titan’s VIP door-to-door travel service collects you from home, for your journey to Falmouth, where our staff will greet you and assist with embarking Boudicca (3T+) in readiness for today’s sailing.

Days 2-4 - At sea

Three full days at sea, giving you plenty of time to familiarise yourself with the extensive facilities on board Boudicca. Enjoy a dip in one of the two pools, unwind in the spa or browse the books in the well-stocked library. And don’t forget the nightly cabaret shows in the Neptune Lounge.

Day 5 - Arrecife, Lanzarote

This morning we arrive in the busy fishing port of Arrecife, on the island of Lanzarote. Perhaps visit the Contemporary Art Museum housed in the 18th century Castillo de San José, where works by Picasso and Miró are on show, or the 16th century Castillo de San Gabriel, which hosts a small ethnographic museum. Alternatively, spend the day relaxing on one of the nearby sandy beaches, or head inland to visit the spectacular volcanic landscape of Timanfaya National Park.

Day 6 - Las Palmas, Gran Canaria

Today we call at Las Palmas, established over 500 years ago and today the most populous city in the Canary Islands. There is so much to see and do here, with several excellent museums, elegant churches, historic buildings, pretty plazas and public gardens to discover. A short walk from the busy city centre will take you to the beautiful beach of Playa de las Canteras, or if you prefer to leave the city behind, the lovely Botanical Gardens are a joy to explore. For the more active, Gran Canaria is also home to some popular hiking trails.

Day 7 - Santa Cruz, Tenerife

This morning, Boudicca arrives in Santa Cruz, the bustling capital of Tenerife. Visit the fascinating Museum of Nature and Man, with its displays on the natural history and archaeology of the Canary Islands, take a look around the boutiques and art galleries or head out of town to spend the day on one of the island’s sandy beaches.

Day 8 - Funchal, Madeira

Today, Boudicca arrives in Funchal, the capital of the Portuguese island of Madeira. Founded in the 15th century, Funchal is a picturesque little city which enjoys a pleasant Mediterranean-style climate. Take the cable car up to the famous Botanical Gardens, home to 2,500 exotic plant species from across the world, or stroll through the historic Old Town, visit the 16th century cathedral and learn about the island’s fascinating history at the interactive Madeira Story Centre, perhaps rounding off the day with a glass of the local Madeira wine, which has been produced here for centuries.

Day 9 - At sea

A day to relax on board Boudicca as we sail towards Lisbon, maybe catching up with friends in the Observatory Lounge or the Card Room.

Day 10 - Lisbon, Portugal

We arrive in the Portuguese capital, Lisbon, this morning. One of Europe’s most beautiful cities, Lisbon entrances visitors with its wealth of grand buildings, from Baroque churches and palaces to art nouveau façades and striking contemporary architecture. Highlights you might like to see include the Jeronimos Monastery, last resting place of Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama, the UNESCO-listed Belem Tower, built in 1515 to protect the city’s harbour, the superb collection of modern art at the Barardo Museum and the National Museum of Ancient Art. In between sightseeing, relax in one of Lisbon’s many cafes and try a ‘pastel de nata’ - a traditional egg-custard tart.

Days 11-12 - At sea

Two full days to unwind aboard Boudicca as we sail back towards Falmouth.

Day 13 Falmouth

We arrive back in Falmouth early this morning, where you will be met and guided to your Titan vehicle, for the journey home.
