Detailed answer
Phoenix Reisen is a travel company based in Bonn, Germany, founded in November 1973 by Johannes Zurnieden, who is still its managing director. It has sold cruises under its own brand since 1988. Its ocean fleet is Amadea, built in 1991; Amera, built in 1988 and bought from Holland America; and Artania, built in 1984 as Princess Cruises' Royal Princess and carrying 1,188 to 1,260 passengers. It also charters Deutschland in the summer months and runs river cruises. Its itineraries are designed mainly for German-speaking guests, and the ships are non-smoking.
Which of its ships call at Gibraltar?
In the Port of Gibraltar schedule checked on Sunday 25 October 2026, one Phoenix Reisen ship is due. Artania calls on Sunday 1 November 2026, 08:00 to 13:00, with about 1,200 passengers, mainly German. This is a short call of five hours. The list on this page updates as the schedule changes.
What should Phoenix Reisen passengers know about Gibraltar?
English is Gibraltar's official language and the currency is the pound sterling; euros are widely accepted in shops, often at a less favourable rate, and cards are widely accepted. Gibraltar is on the same time as Spain (Central European Time). With a morning call, the main sights are best planned in advance. The cable car has been closed for a rebuild and is expected to reopen in 2027, so the Upper Rock Nature Reserve, with its macaques, St Michael's Cave and the Great Siege Tunnels, is reached by taxi tour, minibus tour or on foot.

No departure from Malaga, Cadiz or Lisbon has been found. CruiseMapper lists Artania leaving Genoa on Thursday 29 October 2026, three days before the Gibraltar call, on a 25-night voyage to Colon in Panama, with a longer 50-night option returning to Savona on Friday 18 December 2026.
