FRANCE, PORTUGAL<br />

AND SPAIN<br />

Biarritz, France: This French<br />

resort became fashionable in the 1800s<br />

and has never lost its chic. There are<br />

beaches, casinos, grand hotels, fashionable<br />

boutiques, a 19th-century Orthodox<br />

church built for visiting Russian<br />

aristocrats and a chocolate museum.<br />

Bordeaux, France: The city sits<br />

on the banks of the Garonne River,<br />

which only sm<strong>all</strong> ships can navigate. It’s<br />

easy to spend two days exploring the city<br />

and waterfront but oenophiles will want<br />

to visit the nearby Médoc, St Émilion<br />

and Sauternes wine regions.<br />

Almeira, Spain: At the foot of<br />

a range of mountains, the town has<br />

Moorish-style white-washed houses and<br />

a stunning citadel (Alcazaba) built more<br />

than 1,000 years ago.<br />

Sample: Regent Seven Seas Cruises<br />

offers a 14-night voyage from<br />

Southampton to Barcelona departing<br />

September 23 2019, from £10,699 per<br />

person including one-way flight. C<strong>all</strong>s<br />

include Bordeaux and Biarritz<br />

in France; Leixoes in Portugal; and<br />

La Coruna and Almeria in Spain.<br />
