Day 1 - Buenos Aires

Arrive: Sat 29 January 2022

The Argentine capital - called 'Santa Maria del Buen Ayre' by early sailors thanks to its favourable winds - is more simply 'B.A.' to today's visitors. Its warm, cosmopolitan vitality, more European than South American, carries appealing echoes of Spain and Italy; and our leisurely stay offers ample opportunity to stroll and shop in fashionable Calle Florida and Avenida Santa Fe, to test the famous tea-rooms and nightspots, and to explore further afield amid this intriguing scenario of 'Evita', the hypnotic tango and the gauchos of the Pampas.

Day 2 - Buenos Aires

Depart: Sun 30 January 2022

The Argentine capital - called 'Santa Maria del Buen Ayre' by early sailors thanks to its favourable winds - is more simply 'B.A.' to today's visitors.

Day 5 - Puerto Madryn

Arrive: Wed 02 February 2022 / Depart: Wed 02 February 2022

Here you can watch the whales which visit every year to breed and get so closethat you can almost touch these gentle giants of the sea. The city has many Welsh roots, as it was founded in 1865 by Welsh immigrants, and grew in size with the arrival of Spanish and Italian immigrants.

Day 6 - At Sea

Day 7 - At Sea

Day 8 - Ushuaia

Arrive: Sat 05 February 2022 / Depart: Sat 05 February 2022

Separated from mainland South America by the Straits of Magellan, Patagonia's Tierra del Fuego ('Land of Fire') is an island of ancient legend and austere grandeur. Its location is matched by few and it takes full advantage of its end of world status.

Day 9 - At Sea

Day 10 - Punta Arenas, Chile

Arrive: Mon 07 February 2022 / Depart: Mon 07 February 2022

Strategically positioned almost midway between the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean, on a peninsular at the southern end of mainland Chile, Punta Arenas commands panoramic views over the Magellan Straits. A port that evolved from what was originally a penal colony and whose heyday was eclipsed by the opening of the Panama Canal, Punta Arenas is today a peaceful place with some attractive turn-of-the-century architecture - and the nearest brewery to the South Pole!

Day 19 - Valparaiso

Arrive: Wed 16 February 2022 / Depart: Wed 16 February 2022

Vivacious Valparaiso, main port and second city of Chile, was once the centre of 19th century British naval and commercial activity on South America's Pacific coast. Its setting is dramatic - beside the sweeping curve of a great bay screened by a circle of hills ('cerros'), with the modern lower city and rambling upper section linked by steep zig-zag roads and ancient funiculars. Close by is attractive Vina del Mar, among South America's most popular and vibrant beach resorts.

Day 20 - At Sea

Day 21 - At Sea

Day 22 - Arica

Arrive: Sat 19 February 2022 / Depart: Sat 19 February 2022

Near the Peruvian frontier, Chile's northernmost port lies below the Morro headland, backed by desert sand dunes. Look out for the iron cathedral built by Eiffel of Paris fame! In nearby Azapa Valley is San Migeul Archaeological Museum, with its famous mummies from the ancient Chinchorro culture. Lauca National Park's stunning lake and mountain scenery high on the altiplano, habitat of vicuna, llama and alcapa, can be reached on a shore visit.

Day 23 - At Sea

Day 24 - Paracas

Arrive: Mon 21 February 2022 / Depart: Mon 21 February 2022

Day 25 - Callao, Peru

Arrive: Tue 22 February 2022

Callao is the port for Lima, the ancient capital of Peru, the illustrious 'City of Kings' founded by the conquistadors over 450 years ago and once almost a second Royal Court of Spain. Today, though very much a busy modern city, it guards a priceless treasure-chest of Spanish colonial art and architecture. Our stay also allows time to travel deeper into this mysterious El Dorado, to visit the Incas' ancient capital at Cuzco, high in the Andean foothills.

Day 26 - Callao, Peru

Depart: Wed 23 February 2022

Day 32 - Puerto Limon

Arrive: Tue 01 March 2022 / Depart: Tue 01 March 2022

On the mountain-backed Caribbean shores of Costa Rica (the name, meaning 'rich coast' was bequeathed by Columbus), Puerto Limon is a gateway to Central America's most welcoming (its been a democracy for over a century) and surprising country. Though smaller than Ireland, it boasts an amazing biodiversity. With more butterfly species than the whole of Africa, more bird species than Europe, its precious tropical rainforests harbour over half a million plant and animal species. Small wonder that about a quarter of Costa Rica is protected nature reserve or national park. From Puerto Limon shore visits offer an opportunity to journey inland to the picturesque capital of San Jose or to see more of its rich widlife and exotic scenery.

Day 37 - Belize

Arrive: Sun 06 March 2022 / Depart: Sun 06 March 2022

Formerly British Honduras, Belize adjoins Guatemala and Mexico on the Yucatan Peninsula. Its special pride is its superb nature reserves, rich in the tropical wildlife of reef, river and rainforest. An equally amazing natural feature is the 185-mile barrier reef with its string of cayes. Legend has it that quaint Belize 'City' (boasting many clapboard colonial buildings with 'gingerbread' trimmings and flower-draped verandahs) stands on mahogany chips and rum bottles used to fill low-lying swampland.

Day 38 - Costa Maya

Arrive: Mon 07 March 2022 / Depart: Mon 07 March 2022

From Costa Maya on Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula, the lost Mayan civilisations that once flourished can be explored. The Mayan city of Chacchoben was largely unexplored until 1999, and dates back to 360 AD.

Day 39 - Cozumel

Arrive: Tue 08 March 2022 / Depart: Tue 08 March 2022

10 miles off the Yucatan Peninsula, Cozumel was long sacred to the Maya Indians as the 'Island of Swallows'. Today its crystal seas and amazing reefs (made famous by Jacques Cousteau) have turned it into a shrine for scuba-divers! Sample the little shops, bars and restaurants of San Miguel's colourful waterfront, perhaps visit the ancient Mayan holy place of San Gervasio, or cool off in the coral-rich waters of Chancanaab Lagoon.

Day 40 - At Sea

Day 41 - Nassau

Arrive: Thu 10 March 2022 / Depart: Thu 10 March 2022

During your visit you can sightseeing elegant buildings of Parliament Square, shop on the immaculate waterfront Bay Street for duty-free bargains (don't miss the world's largest Straw Market located here), test superb coral-sand beaches - and end the day on glamorous Paradise Island, with its glittering casino and nightlife.

Day 50 - Ponta Delgada, Azores

Arrive: Sat 19 March 2022 / Depart: Sat 19 March 2022

Since their discovery in the early 15th century, the Portuguese Azores have played an important part in oceanic navigation. They were a logistical point for the discovery of new worlds; a port of call for ships engaged in trade between Europe, America and India; and a place to lay anchor for the galleons bringing the wealth of the Americas back to the old world.

Day 51 - At Sea

Day 52 - At Sea

Day 53 - La Coruna

Arrive: Tue 22 March 2022 / Depart: Tue 22 March 2022

At the north western tip of Spain, La Coruna is Galicia's largest city - from where in 1588 the Spanish Armada sailed to its fate. It's the port of call for nearby Santiago de Compostela, in whose ornate 11th century cathedral rests the body of St James. With Jerusalem and Rome, it remains one of Christendom's most holy places - to which in the middle ages up to two million pilgrims came each year.

Day 54 - At Sea

Day 55 - Southampton

Arrive: Thu 24 March 2022 / Depart: Thu 24 March 2022

Southampton offers fast and efficient check-in areas, spacious departure lounges with seating areas, café-bars and smart washrooms. If you wish to travel by car and park for the duration of your cruise, you can pay for and reserve parking in advance directly with the relevant company. Alternatively, if being dropped off or collected by taxi or private car, they can drive right up alongside the terminal building.

Bolette From Fred Olsen Cruise Lines
