Ports

Buenos Aires

This sophisticated Argentine jewel is the most European of South American capitals. Boulevards here are broader even than those in Paris. Nightlife beats to the pulse of the tango and bossa nova. Glamorous boutiques invite those looking for that special gift (leather is especially good value), while restaurants sizzle to the sound of succulent steaks.

Places of Interest
Palermo Viejo District, Teatro Colon, La Boca

Montevideo

Founded by the Spanish in 1720, the heart of Uruguay’s capital is home to some fine colonial architecture with beautiful 19th century houses and squares. Along the Rambla, the waterfront drive that stretches for 12 miles, you’ll discover sun-kissed beaches and sculpture-filled parks. Let yourself be tempted by several casinos, or stylish boutiques where suedes and amethysts are hard to resist.

Santos

Santos initially became known for its important Port, which in the beginning of the 20th Century became the largest in Latin America, especially as a result of coffee exports. In the 1960s it was soccer’s turn, and the city became famous for being home to Santos Futebol Clube, the team where the 'King of Soccer', Pelé, played. Today, Santos is the largest city on the São Paulo State coast and it has excellent structure for commerce and services.  It is proud of having the largest garden in the world: 5.3 km (3.3 mi) along the shore, with a bike path along the entire extension; as well as being one of the best Brazilian destinations for diving.

Parati

Paraty, also spelled Parati, is a lovely colonial town, 200 kilometres from Rio de Janeiro on Ilha Grande Bay, Brazil's southeastern coast. It lies on the border between Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo states. It's a favorite with Brazilians and visitors who want to get away from it all in an historic town, laze on one of the many beaches, and indulge in a restful vacation.

Rio De Janeiro

There can be few more stunning sights than arriving in Brazil’s unofficial capital by sea. Take a people-watching stroll along the golden beaches of Copacabana and Ipanema. Ride a cable car high above the city and take in the twin landmarks of Sugar Loaf Mountain and Corcovado with its giant statue of Christ the Redeemer. Then seek out unique gifts with a difference as you shop the city streets that seem to ring with the rhythm of a samba.

Award-Winning Itineraries
Regatta, Insignia and Nautica sail itineraries that span the globe. With an entire world of exotic destinations at your disposal, your choices are virtually boundless. The Far East and China beckons with overnight stays in such famed cities as Beijing, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Shanghai, Hanoi, Saigon, Kyoto, Bombay, Luxor and Dubai.

A World of Destination Expertise
In each and every destination we call upon, our goal is to provide you with the most rewarding, enriching destination experience possible. In many ports, you’ll stay overnight which allows for two days of exploration and provides you with the opportunity to immerse yourself in the history, culture and cuisine. Our goal is for each and every guest to experience the destinations, not merely visit.

Wave Entertainment Network 
Wave Entertainment Network delivers an at-sea television platform that rivals what viewers currently experience at home and is a significant change in the world of maritime entertainment. The Wave programming platform is the first multi-channel, interactive television system ever to be distributed to passenger cruise ships in all ocean regions around the world.
