Latin America with Chilean Fjords

Overview

Latin America with Chilean Fjords

Visiting a string of incredible and iconic destinations on board Black Watch, you can fully immerse yourself in Latin America’s intoxicating blend of rich history, unique culture and breathtaking beauty with unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime highlights awaiting discovery throughout your epic, in-depth exploration.

Time in Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Chile and more offers opportunities for authentic and inspirational experiences galore. There’s an overnight stay in Rio de Janeiro, where you can shake your hips to unmistakable samba beats, marvel at Sugar Loaf Mountain, and not only see the mighty Christ the Redeemer, but have a private mass with a local priest at this world-famous wonder too. Sample ranch life on an Estancia on tour from Montevideo; feel the beat and move your feet to the rhythm of traditional Tango dance in Buenos Aires, or perhaps tour to the spectacular Iguazu Falls; and delight in the art and architecture of Puerto Madryn. Ushuaia is sure to astound you: situated amongst the astonishing scenes of snow-capped peaks and atmospheric waterways, it is a haven for marine fauna including penguins, sea lions, seals and sea birds.

Cruising the legendary waters by Cape Horn and capturing the Chilean Fjords’ awe-inspiring panoramas of mountains and glaciers will make everlasting memories, while you’ll also take in charming Punta Arenas; Puerto Chacabuco, gateway to spellbinding Lower Patagonia and the Andes; vivacious Valparaiso; and Arica, for stunning sun-kissed beaches. You could take an overland tour from Paracas to Machu Picchu in Peru, to explore the ancient ruins of one of the New Seven Wonders of the World; and be charmed by the Costa Rican city of Puerto Limón and historic Cartagena de Indias, Colombia. A visit to Havana is a chance to dance the rumba, mambo and cha cha with indomitable Cuban spirit, or simply indulge with authentic local rum and cigars. In between all that, you’ll even get to experience a transit of the magnificent Panama Canal, one of the great cruise adventures.
