Valencia, Stadt der Künste und der Wissenschaften – Zwei Seelen wohnen in ihrer Brust. Die spanische Stadt ist zugleich modern, avantgardistisch und fast futuristisch und doch auch provinziell, traditionell und nostalgisch. Als drittgrößte Stadt Spaniens hat Valencia das Temperament einer mediterranen Metropole, deren breite Alleen die Altstadt umschließen. Eine Fülle architektonischer Stile bestehen harmonisch nebeneinander. Mit ihrem beeindruckenden Kongresszentrum und der Stadt der Wissenschaften, deren futuristisch anmutende Struktur aus kristallin-blauem Wasser emporsteigt, wendet sie sich jedoch resolut dem 3. Jahrtausend zu.

Tangier is a fascinating Moroccan city to visit. It has many assets that appeal to travelers: a sense of exotic mystery, interesting history, magnificent panoramas, unspoilt beaches and friendly locals.
Contrary to popular belief, the film Casablanca is based on the city of Tangier, not Casablanca. Tangier also had a reputation as a city of spies in the 19th and 20th centuries, due to its political neutrality and commercial freedom at the time. Today, the city is an interesting blend of North African, Spanish and French cultures.
Let's begin our journey by leaving the ship for Cap Spartel. This is one of the promontories that juts out into the waters of the two seas. Looking out towards the Atlantic and the setting sun, it stands where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Mediterranean Sea. It is also covered in rockroses and cork oaks.
You will then continue to the entrance of the Kasbah, before embarking on a guided walking tour of one of Tangier's most historically and architecturally interesting districts.
The Kasbah district stretches across the highest point of the medina, and your guide will lead you up the hill, pointing out the particular buildings. Once at the top, you will find yourself in a district that hasn't changed since Roman times. The Kasbah, once the traditional residence of the sultan and his harem, is now one of Tangier's most fashionable residential areas.
The recently renovated Kasbah Museum is dedicated to the history of the district. Enjoy the traditional courtyard, the various exhibitions and the large mosaic works of art on display.
Next, you will visit the American Legation before moving on to the Grand Socco.
The museum traces the history of relations between the United States and Morocco. As Morocco was one of the first countries to recognize its independence, the United States established its legation in Tangier in 1821. It is the only historic monument to have remained in American possession since the birth of the American nation. A letter from George Washington to Moulay Abdellah is on display here, among others.
On the way back down the hill, your guide will take you to one of Tangier's most colorful and lively neighborhoods, the Grand Socco (Souk). This great souk was full of life and remains a lively place, especially when the Rifian peasants come to market. It's the center of things and the link between the medina and the new town.
Before returning to the ship, enjoy a relaxing break with Moroccan mint tea and pastries in a traditional riad in the Medina.

Discover traditional Moroccan handicrafts in the city of Tetouan, nicknamed “the white dove of the Mediterranean” because of the various peoples, cultures and religions that are found there.
Located around 50 kilometres (31 miles) from Tangier through the Rif Mountains, the city of Tetouan is a significant centre of traditional Moroccan handicrafts. First, you will visit Dar Sanaa, an old palace converted into a school to teach traditional Moroccan handicrafts. The aspects of Moroccan heritage transmitted here range from plaster sculpture and painting on wood to leather work and embroidery. The work exhibited at the school and the testimonies of the staff will enable you to learn about many elements of the country’s culture.
Leaving Dar Sanaa, you will visit the former medina of Tétouan on foot; a large part of this UNESCO World Heritage site was built during the 15th century by refugees fleeing the Spanish reconquest of Andalusia. Walk around its narrow streets and colourful souks, amongst sellers in traditional dress offering goat cheese, vegetables and spices. You will then go through the Jewish district. Finally, you will arrive at the Museum of Moroccan Handicrafts, where various handicraft pieces, for example, embroidery, wooden objects and woollen clothes, are exhibited.

Tangier is a fascinating Moroccan city to visit. It has many assets that appeal to travelers: a sense of exotic mystery, interesting history, magnificent panoramas, unspoilt beaches and friendly locals.
Contrary to popular belief, the film Casablanca is based on the city of Tangier, not Casablanca. Tangier also had a reputation as a city of spies in the 19th and 20th centuries, due to its political neutrality and commercial freedom at the time. Today, the city is an interesting blend of North African, Spanish and French cultures.
Let's begin our journey by leaving the ship for Cap Spartel. This is one of the promontories that juts out into the waters of the two seas. Looking out towards the Atlantic and the setting sun, it stands where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Mediterranean Sea. It is also covered in rockroses and cork oaks.
You will then continue to the entrance of the Kasbah, before embarking on a guided walking tour of one of Tangier's most historically and architecturally interesting districts.
The Kasbah district stretches across the highest point of the medina, and your guide will lead you up the hill, pointing out the particular buildings. Once at the top, you will find yourself in a district that hasn't changed since Roman times. The Kasbah, once the traditional residence of the sultan and his harem, is now one of Tangier's most fashionable residential areas.
The recently renovated Kasbah Museum is dedicated to the history of the district. Enjoy the traditional courtyard, the various exhibitions and the large mosaic works of art on display.
Next, you will visit the American Legation before moving on to the Grand Socco.
The museum traces the history of relations between the United States and Morocco. As Morocco was one of the first countries to recognize its independence, the United States established its legation in Tangier in 1821. It is the only historic monument to have remained in American possession since the birth of the American nation. A letter from George Washington to Moulay Abdellah is on display here, among others.
On the way back down the hill, your guide will take you to one of Tangier's most colorful and lively neighborhoods, the Grand Socco (Souk). This great souk was full of life and remains a lively place, especially when the Rifian peasants come to market. It's the center of things and the link between the medina and the new town.
Before returning to the ship, enjoy a relaxing break with Moroccan mint tea and pastries in a traditional riad in the Medina.

Discover traditional Moroccan handicrafts in the city of Tetouan, nicknamed “the white dove of the Mediterranean” because of the various peoples, cultures and religions that are found there.
Located around 50 kilometres (31 miles) from Tangier through the Rif Mountains, the city of Tetouan is a significant centre of traditional Moroccan handicrafts. First, you will visit Dar Sanaa, an old palace converted into a school to teach traditional Moroccan handicrafts. The aspects of Moroccan heritage transmitted here range from plaster sculpture and painting on wood to leather work and embroidery. The work exhibited at the school and the testimonies of the staff will enable you to learn about many elements of the country’s culture.
Leaving Dar Sanaa, you will visit the former medina of Tétouan on foot; a large part of this UNESCO World Heritage site was built during the 15th century by refugees fleeing the Spanish reconquest of Andalusia. Walk around its narrow streets and colourful souks, amongst sellers in traditional dress offering goat cheese, vegetables and spices. You will then go through the Jewish district. Finally, you will arrive at the Museum of Moroccan Handicrafts, where various handicraft pieces, for example, embroidery, wooden objects and woollen clothes, are exhibited.
