They stretch towards the sky in the Catalan metropolis on the coast of the Mediterranean, reminding us of the ingenuity of an extraordinary architect: the fantastic towers of the Sagrada Familia, the final resting place of Antoni Gaudí in Barcelona. However, not only the sea will carry you to magnificent experiences: the Seine will take you to the picturesque Normandy, and the Loire flows to the old capital of the Bretagne. On the Tejo, you will even be greeted by a superb tower which already welcomed the Portuguese discoverers in 1521 - back to their hometown Lisbon. Thanks to a detour to Spain's Balearic Islands, the voyage to Europe's most beautiful shores leaves nothing to be desired.
