Description |
15 Night cruise sailing roundtrip from Buenos Aires onboard Azamara Pursuit.
Sail from Buenos Aires, “The Paris of South Americaâ€, to Montevideo for an overnight stay where you’ll be swept up in its undeniable European charm and elegance. Next, you have two days to explore all the luxury experiences your boutique hotel at sea has to offer.
Then, with a late stay in vibrant Sao Paulo, Brazil, gaze in awe at spellbinding views from atop Banespa—a 161-meter high skyscraper in the heart of the city—before venturing to the rainforests of IIhabela for a late stay, colonial Paraty, and the designer shops and beaches of Buzios.
Next, it’s the event you’ve been waiting for. Settle in for two energetic nights celebrating a Rio de Janeiro tradition that goes back to the 1700s. We visit during the peak of Carnival festivities—including Fat Tuesday—and you’ll be hard-pressed to find a more exhilarating and memorable festival anywhere on earth. Two more days at sea follow to soak in the spectacle you’ve just been a part of, then it’s time to explore the artistic energy and white sand beaches of Punta del Este. Your voyage then concludes with a relaxing return trip to Buenos Aires.
Highlights of this cruise:
Buenos Aires, Argentina
Welcome to elegant, cosmopolitan Buenos Aires, with its European colonial architecture and colorful mix of cultures. Each district has its own style: enjoy Palermo with its mansions and parks; shop in the chic boutiques of Soho and Hollywood; and soak up the Italian flavor of La Boca where tango dancers and artists display their talents for passersby.
Montevideo, Uruguay
Montevideo exudes European charm and elegance, with broad boulevards, fountains, stately squares, and irresistible sidewalk cafes. Take in the Art Nouveau pedestrian mall, Art Deco Centenary Stadium, and American Embassy designed by I.M. Pei. Most of the nation’s countryside is farm or ranchland, and the life of the cowboy, or gaucho, is part of the local lore.
Rio De Janeiro, Brazil
Samba on down to Rio, easy going except for the four days of frenetic, feather-festooned Carnaval. No journey to Rio would be complete without a visit to one of the New Seven Wonders of the World—Christ the Redeemer. At the top of Corcovado Mountain, this 125-foot-tall statue of Jesus Christ spreads its arms over Rio and offers breathtaking panoramic views of Guanabara Bay.
Ilhabela, Brazil
This “beautiful island†lives up to its name, and today belies its once lurid reputation as a hideout of smugglers and pirates. State park trails provide access to a luscious jungle, with numerous waterfalls where you can stop for a swim along the way. And when you work up an appetite there is nothing better than shrimp right off the boat, accompanied by Brazil’s national cocktail, the Caipirinha.
Sao Paulo, (Santos), Brazil
Whatever your heart desires, you’ll have no trouble finding it in São Paulo—Brazil’s largest and most diverse city. From incredible museums to delicious food, cultural landmarks, and relaxing green space, Azamara can help you discover the local flavor of São Paulo.
Punta Del Este, Uruguay
Punta del Este's white sand beaches are popular with families and the glitterati alike. Fashionable cafes and shops line the streets, and an evening harbor-front stroll will no doubt include a serenade by street musicians and entertainers. The town projects an artsy vibe, with the Brava Beach open air sculpture park, displaying large works in steel, concrete, wood, iron, and marble. |
