El Grande – This Grand Voyage circumnavigating South America promises ‘A World in One Continent’.
Covering almost half of that continent is Brazil – land of the mighty Amazon, lush rainforest, spellbinding cities, rhythmic samba and endless miles of beautiful beaches. Ultimately it is from the people that Brazil derives its inimitable character – flavoured with passion and enthusiasm for life. Enjoying a lifestyle simplistic, Uruguay is the land of the gaucho. Argentina – is a land of contrasts. Enriched by seductive sounds of the tango, its capital Buenos Aires is a stylish, bustling metropolis. Remote and wild Patagonia reaches to the tip of the continent where Tierra del Fuego – ‘Land of Fire’, embraces ice. Dominated by big skies, miles of pristine coastline and unspoilt wildlife, the Falkland Islands precede Chile – key to ancient civilisations and an astonishing diversity of nature. Towering volcanic Andean peaks, ancient forests of the Lake District, a baffling archipelagic maze of fjords and Atacam – an incredible desert. Ecuador is your gateway to Galapagos, Panama – threshold to the canal. Vibrant Venezuelean cities are joined by Cartagena – Colombia’s colonial gem, and idyllic Caribbean islands making this the ultimate ‘Voyage of Discovery’.
