A springtime voyage from Cape Town

Enjoy leisurely days at sea interrupted by wonderfully contrasting ports of call on Astor’s springtime voyage from Cape Town to the UK. Sail via Walvis Bay, your gateway to the Namibian Desert, before visiting the Atlantic islands of St. Helena and Ascension. Casablanca and Lisbon are the finale to this remarkable voyage

Begin to recharge your batteries as you enjoy wonderful days at sea relaxing on board Astor. A call in Walvis Bay, Namibia gives you the perfect opportunity to discover the spectacular wetlands intrinsic to the survival of thousands of migratory birds. Arriving by ship into Jamestown on the isolated island of St. Helena is a remarkable experience. Journey into the region’s unique legacy as the island where Napoleon was exiled by the British and died. The next stop is George Town in the Ascension Island, which is famous for sport fishing. This Atlantic outcrop is another treat to visit by sea, before crossing the equator. Casablanca, Morocco’s largest city, is a fusion of Africa, Arabia and Europe with its wide boulevards, bazaars and imposing Hassan II Mosque. The Portuguese capital of Lisbon will delight you with its rich maritime heritage. Finally, after an unforgettable voyage Astor will arrive in Tilbury.

	Located on the western coast of Africa, the cosmopolitan Casablanca is Morocco’s largest city with a thriving tourism trade. Blending the modern world with the ancient, Casablanca can be accurately described as a cultural melting pot with clear African, Arabic and European influences. The city’s many parks, fountains and recognisably Art Deco flourishes are all courtesy of the French Protectorate who made the city their administrative centre in the early part of the 20th Century. Highlights include the impressive Hassan Il Mosque, the ornate Mauresque architecture and gleaming white 1930’s buildings immortalised in the classic film starring Humphrey Bogart.

20/04/16	Lisbon (Portugal)	0730	1300	Click for more informationto hide
	Lying on the Atlantic coast at the mouth of the River Tagus, Lisbon is the westernmost capital in Europe. It was from here that the great caravels set sail on their voyages of exploration and numerous monuments are a reminder Lisbon’s glorious maritime heyday. In 1775 a devastating earthquake all but levelled the city to the ground, and although relatively modern, the Portuguese capital has a quirky charm and much character. The steep, cobbled streets of the ancient Moorish Alfama district lead to wonderful viewpoints looking over the city. Further along the coast the elegant resorts of Cascais and Estoril stud Portugal’s own Riviera.
