    The highlights of this cruise

    The beauty of the Caribbean islands of TOBAGO and ILE ROYALE will build the anticipation for the adventure ahead. Endless white beaches and Brazilian zest for life will welcome you to NATAL and dune buggies* are waiting to take you on an adventure with a thrilling trip through the dunes. The old town of SALVADOR feels like a place that time forgot. Cobbled streets, pastel-coloured colonial houses and baroque churches will transport you back to the 17th century, when the city was a prosperous regional centre. Get to know the country and its people in ILHEUS and PORTO SEGURO, or dream away the hours over a cocktail in the beach bars. RIO DE JANEIRO promises the perfect end to your adventures. Unwind and let the sounds of samba spirit you into the evening – your flight home isn’t until the next day.

    * The shore activities are not included in the cruise price and are in the planning stage. Subject to change.
