Cruise South America, on one continent, a world of new experiences from the Amazon to the Antarctic
South
America! How can one continent contain so many moods and cultures, such
varied landscapes, so much color, brilliance and light? From the sound
of a flute floating over the Andes to the rhythm of tango in Rio and
the hush of Chilean fjords, South America reveals herself in many ways
during a South America cruise. Select cruises give you a full week on
the Amazon River, exploring unique wildlife and local color; while
other itineraries offer you views of Antarctica, the seldom-seen
glaciers and sea life of the remote White Continent. Choose from ten
magnificent South America cruise itineraries ranging from 16 to 34 days
and discover a continent of constant wonders. Add a pre- or post cruise
vacation package and experience the awesome wonder of Iguazu Falls, the
colonial history of Lima and the mystic beauty of Machu Picchu.
