South America

It's not just the weather that's hot here

South America is a place of extremes. From the steamy beaches and rain forests of Brazil, to the snow-capped Andes mountains of Chile.

From the passionate dances in the tango parlors of Buenos Aires, to the glittering golden churches that line the streets. What unites them

all is a great love of beauty, and a passion for living.

Areas of Interest on your South America cruise

Uruguay
Uruguay may be a tiny country, but they know how to do things big. The beaches here are among the most beautiful in all of South America,

and you'll find everything from parasailing to horseback riding available. It's no wonder this is the hot destination for a cruise in South Americans.

 

Brazil
Long, beautiful beaches; thick, lush rain forests; spectacular mountains; and bustling cities - Brazil is as diverse and exciting as the people

 who live there. It's a country where passion is a way of life, and the feeling is contagious.

 

Argentina
Famous for Evita and the passionate tango, Argentina is so much more. A graceful and charming country, Aregentina offers beautiful landscapes,

spectacular architecture, and a unique and genteel culture. It's also home to the southernmost city in the world, Ushuaia, offering a memorable view of the Andes Mountains.

 

Chile
At the very bottom of South America, Chile is practically at the bottom of the world. Amid breathtaking scenery, you'll find the majestic Andes Mountains and Cape Horn. Discovered by

Europeans in 1616, this cape at the bottom of the continent is the place where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Pacific Ocean and can only be seen on South America Cruise.
