After years of looking forward to this trip, our adventure finally begins in South America and the Antarctic Peninsula. We start with 4 days exploring Rio de Janeiro on our own before joining the group for a more in-depth exploration of Rio de Janeiro.

From Rio de Janeiro, we will fly to Iguazu Falls to take in breathtaking views from both the Brazilian and Argentinian sides over 5 days. At the conclusion of our land tour, our small group will board the Sapphire Princess, and continue on for a 17-day cruise from Buenos Aires to Punta Arenas in Chile, Tierra del Fuego in Argentina, and the Antarctic Peninsula.

We’ll enjoy 4 days of scenic cruising along the Antarctic Peninsula before crossing Drake Passage again and stopping in the Falkland Islands and Montevideo, Uruguay. The adventure concludes with a return to Buenos Aires for a flight back home.

I cannot believe how fortunate we are to be able to take this trip!
