LISBON, PORTUGAL Disembark: 0800 Wednesday, October 1 Onboard: 1800 Thursday, October 2

Brief Overview: During the Age of Discovery, the Portuguese people took to the sea and colonized much of Africa and South America between 1325 and 1700. The country’s rugged coastline, scenic views and city monuments remind visitors of this nautical heritage. The maze-like narrow streets and alleys of the Alfama area of Lisbon provide the perfect place for a cultural Scavenger Hunt that will lead to the discovery of many amazing sights, including the Jeronimos Monastery in Belem. Visitors to Lisbon will quickly notice that the Portuguese “canvas” of choice for centuries has been tile painting. Beautiful murals adorn the sides of common buildings, churches and museums alike. The traditional music of Fado can be heard and enjoyed in restaurants and clubs at night. Nature lovers will enjoy a peaceful yoga and surf retreat or exploring the ruins and zip-line at Sintra. Check out the SAS Fall 2013 Student Photo Gallery.

Out of town: Travel overland to Spain and experience the bizarre Ossuary chapel in Evora and the beauty of the medieval village of Monsaraz on your way to Sevilla on the World Heritage sites tour.
