  • Buenos Aires, the vibrant capital city of Argentina and one of the world’s global cities, is a modern metropolis overflowing with engaging cultures, flavourful cuisines, and exciting things to see and do. Famed for being the World’s Capital of Theater, with the largest number of active theatres in the world, this city boasts an eclectic mix of European architectural styles, a wide variety of cultures, and an abundance of attractions you won’t want to miss. You’ll find stunning street art throughout several vibrant barrios, a wonderful variety of cuisines from around the world available, and so much more. There’s a reason this city draws millions of tourists from around the world each year, and why so many of those tourists keep coming back. With deep-rooted traditions found hand-in-hand with cutting-edge modern culture, something that complements the upbeat atmosphere found throughout this city, Buenos Aires is somewhere truly special. One of the most diverse cities in the Americas, with an intriguing colonial history to uncover and a bright future ahead, Buenos Aires is certain to become an instant favourite among the highlights of any South American adventure.
  • Located on the north-eastern bank of the Rio de la Plata, Montevideo is the capital city of Uruguay and a modern metropolis with a difference. Boasting stunning European art deco-style architecture, a hangover from this region’s colonial past, Montevideo is home to an expansive beach promenade and a South American atmosphere to match. Here, you’ll find the Rambla, a riverfront avenue that’s one of the world’s longest continuous sidewalks – which just highlights how perfect Montevideo is if you’re looking to take a laid-back wander here. Beyond this, though, if you’re looking for a little more action, you’ll find a bustling marketplace in Mercado del Puerto, intriguing exhibitions in the Andes Museum and Museo El Juguetero (just two of the several incredible museums and galleries in Montevideo), and fantastic food everywhere you turn. With all the modern comforts of a capital city, but a relaxed atmosphere that lets you savour the little things, a visit to this metropolis is worth looking forward to.
  • While sailing between destinations, you’ll have time to take a moment and enjoy everything your cruise ship has to offer; with stunning food prepared with the freshest ingredients, fantastic entertainment opportunities, and plenty of places to lounge around, an enjoyable day at sea awaits!
  • Also known as Stanley, Port Stanley is the capital city of the Falkland Islands and a charming destination to visit during cruises through the South Atlantic Ocean and beyond. Home to roughly 70% of the Falkland Islands’ population, Port Stanley is the place to be if you’re looking to immerse yourself in this archipelago’s unique culture. Without an indigenous population, you’ll find that much of the culture and cuisine in Port Stanley is an amalgamation of British culture and cuisine, with influences from nearby nations, such as Argentina. So, Port Stanley is often described as feeling somewhat similar to a small English or Scottish town – a home away from home, of sorts. However, although exploring the quaint city centre is a fantastic way to spend your time, Port Stanley is also a great starting point for adventures further inland and along the coast. With the chance to enjoy guided nature walks, wildlife spotting, and experiences that invite you to explore this island’s tumultuous history, there’s something for everyone to enjoy here – whether you’re looking to sit and enjoy a freshly-poured pint in one of the local pubs, spot some penguins in their natural habitat, or admire the stunning landscapes found here.

  • Widely believed to be the most southerly point of South America for a long time, and a destination marking the meeting point of the Atlantic Ocean and Pacific Ocean, Cape Horn is a stunning headland on Hornos Island – one of the larger landmasses in the Tierra del Fuego archipelago – known for unusual rock formations, tumultuous weather, and its significant role in maritime trading from the 1700s to the early 20th century. Initially discovered by Spanish explorers in 1526, and eventually first fully rounded by Dutch navigators for the East India Company in 1616, who then named this destination Kaap Hoorn, after Hoorn in the Netherlands, Cape Horn is a rocky outlet steeped in maritime history. Navigating around Cape Horn was once a dangerous feat, with rough waters and intense winds making this trade route a valuable one – when navigated successfully, anyway. Rendered largely obsolete as a trade route by the Panama Canal, Cape Horn now represents a breathtaking scenic cruising experience you can enjoy without worrying about the treacherous sailing conditions.
  • Nicknamed the “End of the World”, Ushuaia is a charming windswept city on the southernmost tip of South America and an important port of call for cruise adventures to Antarctica. In the heart of the Tierra del Fuego archipelago, this port is surrounded by some of the most breathtaking landscapes in the world, boasting sensational sightseeing opportunities for everyone who travels here. From vibrant coastal forests and dramatic waterfalls to stunning glaciers and unique polar wildlife, Ushuaia really is somewhere where you’ll be able to bask in the sheer beauty of nature, and soak up some sensational panoramic views from the vantage points found here. This city, though, while being famous for being (arguably) the most southernmost city in the entire world, is also something of a gateway to Antarctica and the smaller islands that make up the Tierra del Fuego archipelago. So, despite being rather quaint in comparison to other Argentinian cities and South American holiday hotspots, what you’re met with in Ushuaia is just a taste of what’s to come – if you’re continuing onto Antarctica, anyway. That doesn’t mean you should be too eager to leave Ushuaia, though, as this port of call does offer a lot more than just breathtaking natural beauty. Ushuaia is also home to a unique collection of museums and some fantastic food; so, while the awe-inspiring natural beauty of the region is a major highlight, this is one destination that will prove to be just as memorable as everything else on your itinerary.
  • The Beagle Channel is a stunning 240-kilometer-long waterway in Tierra del Fuego, Southern Patagonia, that separates Argentina and Chile. Known for its magnificent landscape, it boasts snow-capped Andean peaks and tidewater glaciers (Glacier Alley) and, while chilly and windy, provides a smoother, more scenic sailing path than the nearby Cape Horn. It is frequently described as a "frozen cathedral" with glaciers plummeting right into the sea. Visitors frequently see sea lion colonies, a variety of seabird species (cormorants), and occasionally penguins or whales.
  • The peninsular of Punta Arenas is a hugely popular location for those wanting to whale watch either from the rugged coastline or boat trips out to sea. Cruisers stopping by can also enjoy the sanctuary for sea life such as endangered turtles and seahorses, or kayak along the Magellan Straits to spot penguins. Explore the main boulevard and take in the local art gallery, or hit the duty free area for fantastic souvenirs.
  • The Cockburn Channel in southern Chile is a stunning, desolate 64-kilometer (40-mile) waterway in Chilean Patagonia famed for its rough fjords, glaciers, and high mountains. The waterway is bordered by the Andes and the Alberto de Agostini National Park. You'll see towering mountains, glaciers (including the Pia Fjord), and several waterfalls flowing into the sea. It connects the Strait of Magellan to the Beagle Channel, a popular destination for expedition cruise ships due to its clean, spectacular, and frequently challenging cold terrain.
  • The Pío Xi Glacier, also known as the Brüggen Glacier, is located in the remote Bernardo O'Higgins National Park in Chilean Patagonia. It is a gigantic ice river with 75-meter-high cliffs and tremendous calving scenes. Unlike most glaciers worldwide, it is continually developing and advancing, creating a spectacular landscape of deep blue crevasses and ice pillars.
  • Puerto Montt, Chile, is a charming port city with a lot to offer everyone who visits – whether you’re looking for adventure ashore or a more leisurely experience. Home to some sensational cuisine, especially seafood, and surrounded by stunning scenery, this is the perfect place to casually immerse yourself in Chilean culture. Although, with this destination surrounded by forests and national parks, there’s almost more than enough opportunity to go exploring the wonderful wilderness. Staying in the city, though, you’ll have the chance to see the remarkable wood-built Our Lady of Mount Carmel Cathedral, the unique statues of Sentados Frente al Mar, and more.
  • While sailing between destinations, you’ll have time to take a moment and enjoy everything your cruise ship has to offer; with stunning food prepared with the freshest ingredients, fantastic entertainment opportunities, and plenty of places to lounge around, an enjoyable day at sea awaits!
  • Served primarily by San Antonio, a moderately-sized Chilean port city within touching distance of the nation’s capital, Santiago is among the highlights on your cruise through South America. The largest city in Chile, and among the largest in the Americas, this urban centre is a fascinating place to explore. From impressive cultural landmarks like La Moneda Palace and San Cristobal Hill to the breathtaking views from atop Santa Lucia Hill and the remarkable artwork in the National Museum of Fine Arts, there are experiences everyone can enjoy in Santiago – not to mention the abundance of incredible restaurants and bars to check out. You’ll also find yourself a stone’s throw from a stretch of stunning beaches in San Sebastian, and San Antonio itself is a fantastic place to spend some time if you’re looking to connect with the great outdoors. So, no matter what type of traveller you are, you’ll find something to enjoy when visiting Santiago.
  • The adventure continues, and it’s time to travel from one destination to the next! At this stage of your journey, you’ll transfer between destinations. The specific details of your transfer will be available closer to your departure date. However, if you have any questions regarding this, please contact one of our talented cruise agents; they would be happy to help!
  • Say goodbye to your current destination, for it’s time to head somewhere new! Flight information will be available closer to your embarkation date, but this will be when you’re hopping on a plane to continue your adventure – be that travelling somewhere new, or heading home.
