The strategically designed route encompasses key ports along the way, including Antwerp – Thamesport – Moerdijk – Rotterdam – Bilbao – Leixoes – Lisbon – Setubal – Sines – Leixoes – Vigo – Bilbao and returns through Antwerp. This fixed-day, weekly service with three vessels departing from Rotterdam on Tuesdays, seamlessly integrates with our connections to the Spanish hinterland (Barcelona, Valencia, Madrid, Zaragoza, Burgos, and Agoncillo (La Rioja) and from Spain & Portugal into the United Kingdom, Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Scandinavia, Baltics, Ireland, and Northern Ireland.
