14 Night Cruise sailing from St Martin to Lisbon aboard Tere Moana.

The invention of the steamship helped usher in the Golden Age of travel, which lasted from the turn of the 20th century until World War II. Today, a transatlantic crossing aboard a luxury vessel allows modern travelers to recall those romantic days of old. With days at sea, you can truly relax, indulging yourself as you please and letting go of everyday cares. Aboard the m/v Tere Moana, your extraordinary all-inclusive value includes gourmet dining, special lectures and presentations, nightly entertainment, and a host of amenities, from the onboard pool and fitness center to free use of our reading gallery and DVDs. Or perhaps you'll take advantage of optional treatments at our luxurious spa. Your classic voyage will also be punctuated with memorable port calls at the capital city of Gran Canaria in the Canary Islands and Madeira, the "floating garden of the Atlantic," as you journey from St. Martin in the Caribbean to the shores of the storied Portuguese capital, Lisbon.

Day 1 Embark the m/v Tere Moana in St. Martin, F.W.I.
The smallest island in the world to have been partitioned between two nations (France and the Netherlands), St. Martin/St. Maarten has prospered in peaceful coexistence for nearly 350 years. Embark the m/v Tere Moana on the French side of the island, St. Martin, then perhaps enjoy the open-air markets, outdoor cafes, and duty-free shopping of this elegant and sophisticated island.

Days 2-9 At Sea
A transatlantic crossing is one of the great traditions of cruising. The advent of the steamship during the 19th century made seafaring far safer than the sailing vessels of old and helped pave the way for the Golden Age of travel at the turn of the century. It was during this era that the idea of travel for pleasure was popularized, and crossing the sea aboard a luxury ship became a destination in itself.

Day 10 Las Palmas (Gran Canaria), Spain
The Moana moors today at the capital of Gran Canaria, the second-most populous of the seven Canary Islands. A paradise off the northwest coast of Africa, this archipelago boasts a unique culture that blends Spanish, African, Latin American, and European influences. In Las Palmas, admire a spectacular setting overlooking two bays rimmed with beautiful beaches.

Day 11 At Sea
Relax to the rhythms of the sea today as The Moana heads toward Madeira, the Portuguese archipelago northwest of the Canary Islands that has been dubbed the "Floating Garden of the Atlantic." Perhaps you'll work out at the ship's Fitness Center.

Day 12 Madeira, Portugal
As soon as The Moana enters the stunning azure harbor of Funchal, the capital of Madeira, you'll see why the approach to the city is considered one of the two most beautiful in the world (the other being Rio de Janeiro, Brazil). In this clean, crescent-shaped city, flowers bloom year-round, exquisite scenery greets the eye at every turn, and balmy breezes blow. While here, enjoy the plentiful walking trails, watersports, and dazzling shops, restaurants, and nightlife of this sophisticated urban center borne of a pirate stronghold.

Days 13-14 At Sea
Enjoy two more days at leisure to experience the amenities of The Moana. Perhaps you'll take in a presentation by our onboard naturalist, or watch a movie on the private DVD player in your stateroom. And linger with new friends over an elegant meal in one of the ship's two dining venues.

Day 15 Disembark in Lisbon, Portugal
One of the oldest cities in the world, Lisbon is the capital of Portugal and its largest city. It is also the westernmost capital in Europe-and one of the most beautiful capitals on the continent. Disembark The Moana here this morning, cherishing the memories of your classic voyage.
