Cruise overview

Picture yourself sailing between Buenos Aires and Rio de Janeiro, carried along by the ocean waves. At the end of the northern summer, set off on an all-new journey during which vibrant metropolises will rub shoulders with idyllic beaches and lush landscapes. Fall under the spell of iconic cities such as elegant and welcoming Montevideo, luxurious and refined Punta del Este, preserved and authentic Porto Belo, and lively and festive Rio de Janeiro. You will also be able to escape to paradisiacal places like Paraty, a colourful colonial city nestling between the jungle and the ocean, or Ilhabela, the island of countless waterfalls, where serenity and natural beauty come together.

Itinerary

Day 1

Buenos Aires


Glamorous and gritty, Buenos Aires is two cities in one. What makes Argentina’s capital so fascinating is its dual heritage—part European, part Latin American. Plaza de Mayo resembles a grand square in Madrid, and the ornate Teatro Colón would not be out of place in Vienna. But you’ll know you’re in South America by the leather shoes for sale on cobbled streets and impromptu parades of triumphant soccer fans. Limited-production wines, juicy steaks, and ice cream in countless flavors are among the old-world imports the city has perfected.
