Join us in the summer of 2025 from Lisbon to Portsmouth aboard Ritz Carlton’s newest yacht with all-suite accommodations and each with its own private terrace. For 9-nights you will enjoy the company of your Darioush hosts along with fellow enthusiasts during private F&WT events both onboard and shore.
This cruise offers a captivating journey through some of Europe’s most picturesque coastal landscapes. Visit historic port wine cellars in Porto; the Guggenheim Museum of Bilboa, Spain before reaching the wine capital of the world – Bordeaux where you will enjoy an overnight stay onboard ship allowing ample time to sample world-class wines, savor culinary delights and tour renowned vineyards. Saint-Malo, situated on the rugged coast of Brittany is your next stop featuring cobbled streets, medieval architecture with a rich maritime heritage. Then it’s on to the UK’s St. Peter’s Port, the capital of Guernsey in the Channel Islands where you will be greeted by pastel-colored houses cascading down the hillsides, overlooking the azure waters. Upon arrival at your final destination of Portsmouth, you will take home with you fond memories of an unforgettable journey and the camaraderie of fellow travelers.
