This 27-night holiday is a real adventure, taking you to both lesser-known and well-loved destinations, in a trip that you're likely to never forget! Your trip begins with a three-night hotel stay in Cape Town, where you'll be able to visit the penguins of Boulders Beach, ride the cable car to the top of Table Mountain, and visit Robben Island, where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for so long.

You'll then board Norwegian Sky for a 21-night sailing that takes you all the way from Cape Town to Barcelona. Your first port of call is Walvis Bay in Namibia. Here you'll find vast flocks of pink flamingoes paddling in waters that are framed by rolling sand dunes. Next up is Angola's capital city, Luanda, where we recommend that you visit the National Slavery Museum. The lush jungly surrounds of Sao Tome come next, before visiting Abidjan in Côte d’Ivoire where you'll want to head to the Galerie Cécile Fakhoury with its minimalist interiors and modern artworks. Your final African destination is Dakar in Senegal, and here you'll find golden beaches, a pretty lighthouse and a real mixture of modern and old.

The Canary Islands come next and you'll take in the volcanic beaches, and otherworldly landscapes of Tenerife, Gran Canaria and Lanzarote. Motril is next, and is a great launchpad for those looking to visit Granada's ornate Alhambra. Alicante is your penultimate destination and is a charming city with golden sands, bustling tapas spots and a contemporary art gallery ironically housed in one of the city's oldest buildings.

Your trip concludes with a two-night hotel stay in Barcelona. This city marries sleek modern hotels, with a characterful Gothic quarter and a long golden beach. It's a bustling spot, and will leave you feeling excited and energised at the end of your trip.
