Punta del Este, Uruguay<br />

If South America had purposely created<br />

a place to compete with the Riviera, this<br />

would be it. Carelessly browse through the<br />

chic shops and galleries of Calle Gorlero,<br />

or spend an idle afternoon people-watching<br />

from a beachside café while the assorted<br />

sun-lovers and jet-setters around you<br />

enjoy one of the continent’s most storied<br />

playgrounds.<br />

Ports of Call<br />

Ushuaia, Argentina<br />

No city on the planet has a more southerly<br />

latitude. As a result, the sun shines for 18<br />

hours during each summer day, providing<br />

ample opportunity to view the mix of glaciers,<br />

forests, and sea, all framed by Mount<br />

Martial to the west and Mounts Olivia and<br />

Cinco Hermanos to the east.<br />

SHORE EXCURSIONS INCLUDE: Train Ride at<br />

the End of the World, Beagle Channel Navigation &<br />

National Park, Tierra Mayor Trekking<br />

Rio de Janeiro, Brazil<br />

Every step you take through these streets<br />

is set to the beat of pulsating samba<br />

rhythms. Feel the spirit of the costumed<br />

revelers, who during Carnaval weave<br />

through the winding streets under the<br />

watchful eye of Christ the Redeemer. Or<br />

travel by tram to the top of Sugar Loaf<br />

Mountain and view it all from above, letting<br />

the energetic vibe rise to meet you.<br />

SHORE EXCURSIONS INCLUDE: Sugar Loaf &<br />

City Tour, Best of Rio, Corcovado & Tijuca Forest<br />

Valparaíso, Chile<br />

The picturesque neighborhoods of<br />

Valparaíso extend up into the hills<br />

overlooking the busy port and the<br />

Pacific Ocean beyond. To explore the<br />

churches and architectural landmarks<br />

that make this a World Heritage site,<br />

ride the acencors, a series of elevators<br />

that are over 100 years old.<br />

SHORE EXCURSIONS INCLUDE: Santiago City<br />

Tour, Portillo Resort, Andes Mountains<br />

Strait of Magellan<br />

This 360-mile strait is named for the<br />

ambitious Portuguese explorer,<br />

Ferdinand Magellan, who sought a way<br />

to circumnavigate the globe. You’ll<br />

retrace his route as you make the only<br />

available crossing between the Atlantic<br />

and Pacific oceans, with the exception of<br />

the Panama Canal.<br />
