Countryside & Wine Tasting Tour:
Explore the beautiful surroundings of Lisbon. To the west, along the Estoril coast, there are several lovely towns located just across the Rio Tejo. Driving south across the April 25th Bridge, Lisbon's answer to the Golden Gate Bridge, you'll pass the statue of Christ and glimpse a spectacular view of Lisbon and its surroundings. Continue along the summit of the Arrabida Mountains for more panoramic views of the coastline and lovely green valleys. At the small village of Setubal, see the facade of the fine Manueline Church of Jesus. A winding scenic route back to the ship takes you through the small town of Azeitao. Here, in the heart of the wine country, you will visit the cellars of Jose Maria da Fonceca, producers of the famous Lancers wines. After a tour of the cellars and gardens, you will be able to sample a recent vintage.

Estoril, Sintra & Queluz Tour:
This tour along the famous Estoril coast includes such memorable highlights as Sintra, the summer residence of kings, and Queluz, with its magnificent palace. As you depart Lisbon and head west along the seashore, enjoy the panorama of the River Tagus and the pounding surf of the Atlantic Ocean. Cosmopolitan Estoril was once favored by expatriates and exiled European royalty, and still attracts throngs of summer revelers who come to play in its famous casino. Continue to the well-known seaside resort of Cascais, then on to Sintra, considered one of the most serene and beautiful villages in Portugal. This summer playground for Portuguese nobility is located amid the lush woods and valleys of the northern slopes of the Serra de Sintra. Noble homes and palaces with walled gardens and stately courtyards are scattered throughout the forested hills. You will have time to stroll among the narrow cobbled streets or browse through the local handicraft shops. Then continue inland to the Portuguese Royal Palace at Queluz, built in the second half of the 18th century to house the royal family. A simple exterior belies the lavishness within. Of particular note are the Throne Room, with its heavily gilded ceilings and walls; and the Hall of Ambassadors, with a giant chessboard floor and many mirrors. You may wander through the sculpted gardens, containing row upon row of geometric hedges, artistically carved bushes and huge old magnolia trees.

Fatima Tour:
Take the northern highway from Lisbon and pass through the Tagus plains and the bullfight country of Vila Franca de Xira. Arrive in Fatima, center of the Christian faith and of world pilgrimage. It was on May 13, 1917, when the world was still suffering from the horrors of World War I, that the little shepherds Lucia, Francisco and Jacinta from Aljustrel, a small village near Fatima, saw a "lady all of light " above a small oak tree in the Cova da Iria. According to legend, she asked them to return there on the 13th of each month for the next five months. You will visit the Basilica, with its stained glass window and 65-meter high tower, surmounted by a crown of bronze weighing 7 tons and by a great crystal cross, consecrated on October 7, 1953, which is lighted during evening services. The remains of Francisco and Jacinta, the little shepherds, are inside the Basilica. You'll also visit the Chapel of the Apparitions in the heart of the sanctuary. Just outside Fatima, you will visit Aljustrel, the Marto home, where Francisco and Jacinta were born; the room in which Francisco died; and the Santos home where Lucia was born.

Lisbon Orientation Tour:
