Lisbon, Portugal

Lisbon is one of the oldest cities in Europe, predating London, Paris, and Rome by several centuries. Perhaps as a result, many of the city’s top attractions have a timeless quality. You can see many of the major sites aboard Tram Line 28, an antique yellow tramcar that winds through the Arab Quarter, the downtown district of Baixa, and the nightlife hubs of Chiado and Bairro Alto.

• Climb to the top of Belém Tower for panoramic views of Lisbon’s harbor. Built in 1515, the tower was the starting point for ocean voyages in the 16th century and beyond.
• Parque das Nações: This waterfront park contains a promenade, a multilevel shopping mall, and one of the world’s largest aquariums.
• Hear live fado music in the hilltop district of Bairro Alto. Fado’s haunting sounds are uniquely Portuguese.
• Available upgrades: Guests may add a hop-on/hop-off tour in each city for $50 more per person, add round-trip private transfers in each city from $100 more per person, or add both from $150 more per person.

Barcelona, Spain

Barcelona is like Madrid’s hip younger sister, praised as “quirky, cosmopolitan and effortlessly cool” by Frommer’s. One definite must-see is La Sagrada Família, a whimsical basilica designed by modernist architect Antoni Gaudí. It’s a work in progress if there ever was one: by the time it’s finished (maybe in 2026? fingers crossed), it will have been under construction for nearly 150 years.

• Eat like a local: Sample wild mushrooms, tapas, and freshly caught octopus at Boqueria Market. The hundreds of stalls here also sell fresh produce, sweets, and Spanish wines.
• The Picasso Museum in the Gothic Quarter holds one of the largest collections of Picasso works anywhere.
• Stroll La Rambla: Barcelona’s most famous street is known for its people watching and street performers.
