Ok,

Lisbon, shuttle into town or HOHO bus round the city. The tourist tram round the city but not with the ship. Most of the site are walkable from the bus.

Gibraltar, up the rock on a mini bus. Either through the ship or pick one up at the dock gate. The first way can be quicker. Remember we only have half a day.

Malaga, not sure only done a short round the city trip with P&O, not brilliant.

Cadiz, we always stay in Cadiz as we like it so much never been to Seville. You can walk off and strength into city centre.

Oporto, new to us.

Vigo, think we are only in half a day, therefore not enough time for Santiago do Compostela so just walk off and wander. Into the shopping centre by the port take the lift up to top and then walk out on to a bridge which connects to the old town. Saves a steep uphill walk.

Ah cheers Dai.

Gib is sorted..walk and a pint up Main St and a bottle of Pussers for home. :lol:

Did Vigo last year, walked round town then up to the old castle, ok

We do like to get the hoho bus so will probably do that in Lisbon. We'll see what the fancy takes elsewhere i guess.

Thanks again, see you soon :thumbup:

Lisbon: train to Cascais, stroll along the promenade back towards Estoril, lunch at the café on the promenade with sangria and vinho verde and then train back to town. :thumbup:
