With Central Holidays, your voyage doesn’t stop when the ship docks. We offer a wide selection of pre- and post-cruise extensions, travel packages, and immersive experiences across Italy, Portugal, and Spain—perfect for adding more culture, history, and flavor to your journey. 
Whether savoring world-class cuisine, uncovering ancient history, or soaking up local life, our tailored land programs let you explore each destination in depth. Extend your time ashore and create memories that will last long after your cruise ends.

Discover the eternal city where every corner tells a story. Walk in the footsteps of emperors at the Colosseum, marvel at the art and grandeur of the Vatican, and toss a coin into the Trevi Fountain to ensure your return. Beyond the monuments, savor authentic Roman cuisine—from handmade pasta to gelato enjoyed in a bustling piazza. Rome is more than a destination; it’s an immersion into history, culture, and la dolce vita.

Escape to Madeira, the “Island of Eternal Spring,” on a six-day Portugal getaway based in Funchal. Explore volcanic landscapes, lush gardens, and Europe’s highest sea cliff, Cabo Girão. Stroll vibrant markets, sip Madeira wine, and enjoy folklore music and dance. From the dramatic west coast to the enchanting “Nun’s Valley,” every day brings stunning scenery, rich culture, and unforgettable flavors.

Embrace the vibrant spirit of Barcelona, a city where culture and cuisine go hand in hand. Taste your way through bustling markets like La Boqueria, indulge in authentic tapas and paella, and discover why this city is a global culinary hotspot. Between bites, admire Gaudí’s architectural masterpieces, stroll down lively Las Ramblas, and soak in the Mediterranean vibe. For food lovers, Barcelona is nothing short of a feast for the senses.
