Your Itinerary
Spanish Mini Cruise
DAY ONE
Our holiday begins with selected coach pick-ups and a journey to Portsmouth for the 9.15pm overnight sailing to Bilbao aboard P&O’s state-of-the-art ‘Pride of Bilbao’.
Once you’ve settled into your cabin it’s time for you to enjoy this magnificent vessel. Be sure to make use of the many excellent facilities on the ship throughout your stay.
DAY TWO
Today you have a full day at leisure to enjoy life on board the ‘Pride of Bilbao’. Relax in the sun on deck, catch a film in the cinema, keep fit in the gym, unwind in the sauna and jacuzzi, enjoy a cocktail by the indoor pool, or treat yourself to some well deserved pampering in the hair and beauty salon*. There’s also a shop offering low tax-paid goods, and with both sterling and Euros accepted on board it couldn’t be easier to stock up on continental goodies. Remember, there’s a dedicated play area for the children and a wide array of restaurants where you’ll find a great choice of food ranging from a spicy snack to a full-scale gourmet treat. Then, in the evening, be sure to make the most of dazzling entertainment on offer - take in a show, dance in the nightclub or try your luck in the casino. Alternatively, you could relax in the piano bar on the foredeck or try out some new moves at the nightclub. Then perhaps relax with your favourite drink before retiring to your comfortable cabin, complete with en suite facilities and air-conditioning.
* Please note there is a charge for some of these facilities.
DAY THREE
We arrive in Bilbao early this morning where you can join one of our excellent optional excursions. Visit the Guggenheim Museum or enjoy an Old City Walking Tour in Bilbao. Alternatively join the coastal tour of Castro Urdiales and spend some time relaxing on the beach. You could, however, walk into the nearby town of Santurce where you can shop for great bargains or soak up the sun on the beach. Another extensive night of dancing and cabaret awaits your enjoyment. In the early afternoon the ship hoists anchor for its return journey to England.
DAY FOUR
You’re free to enjoy all the ship’s activities during the day, until we arrive at Portsmouth in the early evening, where your coach will take you back to your original pick-up point.
