South America Passage Fly cruise Holidays aboard the ms Zaandam

This luxury fourteen-night cruise begins in Buenos Aires, the birthplace of poets, composers and a dance called Tango; a city with European flair and a Latin heartbeat. Then cruise to the ends of the earth through the Cockburn and Beagle Channel’s as you make your way to Ushuaia, the southernmost town in the world. Prepare to have your breath taken away by the mesmerising beauty of the Chilean Fjords and marvel at unusual rock formations and imposing granite cliffs as you enjoy scenic cruising around Cape Horn. At the end of your cruise you will spend a night in Santiago Chile, a lush, irresistible tangle of serpentine streets, steep hills and the famous ascensores.

17 nights from £1899 PP

YOUR ITINERARY: DAY 1 – LONDON HEATHROW TO BUENOS AIRES : Fly overnight from London Heathrow to Buenos Aires, Argentina. DAY 2 – BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA: Upon arrival in Buenos Aires transfer by private car to the port and embark the ms Zaandam. Overnight in port, Buenos Aires. DAY 3 – BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA: Buenos Aires has been the gateway to Argentina for centuries; this stylish, energetic port city is rich in culture and history and well worth exploring. DAY 4 – MONTEVIDEO, URUGUAY: Friendly and genteel, Montevideo honours colonial customs: long lunches, siestas, high tea. Nearby: Colonia del Sacramento, the oldest city in Uruguay (ca. 1680) and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. DAY 5 & 6 – AT SEA DAY 7 – PORT STANLEY, FALKLAND ISLANDS: Stanley is the only town in the sparsely populated Falkland Islands. Visit a local pub, take a walk across the moorlands and see penguins of every type. Sea conditions permitting (otherwise scenic cruising Falkland Sound) DAY 8 – STRAIT OF MAGELLAN, CRUISING: Enjoy a day of cruising through the Strait of Magellan, a natural passage that links the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.

DAY 9 – PUNTA ARENAS, CHILE & COCKBURN CHANNEL, BEAGLE CHANNEL & GLACIER ALLEY – SCENIC CRUISING: From Punta Arenas you can venture to the high scarps of Torres del Paine National Park, the penguin colony at Seno Otway, or the Martian volcanic topography of Pali Aike National Park. Look out for wildlife and enjoy spectacular scenery as you cruise through the narrow waterways of the Cockburn and Beagle channel’s as you head towards Ushuaia. DAY 10 – USHUAIA, ARGENTINA: The southernmost town in the world, where dominating peaks loom on three sides; the fourth opens to the Beagle Channel, where sea lions bellow and king crab rules. DAY 11 – SCENIC CRUISING CAPE HORN: Magellan’s fleet first circled this massive, treacherous rock at continent’s end, and until the Panama Canal was constructed, this was the main shipping route from the Atlantic to the Pacific. DAY 12 – CANAL SARMIENTO, SCENIC CRUISING: Be among the lucky few to spend a glorious day scenic cruising through Tierra del Fuego and the snow-capped peaks and ethereal blue glaciers of Canal Sarmiento. Cutting through Chile’s Torres del Paine National Park, this majestic waterway is surrounded by other-worldly beauty. DAY 13 – CHILEAN FJORDS, SCENIC CRUISING: Fjords that are arguably more spectacular than those in Norway or Alaska. See them here along the southern coastline of Chile, a 1,000-mile maze of virgin-forested islands, glistening glaciers and more fjords than in all of Scandinavia.
