Fine Dining - The Canary Islands are famous for their great marisco food and so enjoy a typical meal of lobster and cod whilst dining at the lovely ports, al fresco in the warm surroundings of the Canaries.

Walking - Ok so it may not be glamorous but there is some beautiful natural scenery (including volcanic!) to enjoy in the Canaries - make sure you are to take it all in; it’s certainly as stunning as any glamorous man-made setting!

All in all, the Canaries has everything you could look for on a luxury holiday…Especially around the ports where millionaire cruise ships are frequently docked to host parties of the rich and famous.
