Luxuriously cruise from Buenos Aires to Rio and experience its world-famous carnival, with all travel, meals onboard, plus a drinks package and more

Days 1 - 4: Buenos Aires, Argentina

Touch down in Buenos Aires, Argentina’s vibrant capital. After checking into your super central pad, you can start to explore this mesmerising metropolis that seamlessly blends colonial architecture with Latino flair. There’s so much to keep you occupied here, from lively Recoleta, whose arty cemetery is filled with famous mausoleums, to the colourful clapboard houses of Camino in La Boca. Don’t miss out on sampling the local delights - dulce de leche and empanadas are not to be missed - and spending an afternoon in Plaza Dorrego to watch the locals tangoing the day away. After three nights at Esplendor by Wyndham Buenos Aires Tango, you’ll transfer to the port to embark on the main adventure aboard your sparkling cruise ship, the Azamara Quest.

Days 5 & 6: Montevideo, Uruguay

Your first stop is Uruguay's eclectic capital, Montevideo. It’s the country’s largest city, and famous for its historic downtown district, its music, theatre, and arts scenes, as well as its sun-kissed beaches. Art Deco and Neoclassical buildings rub shoulders while skyscrapers rise high into the sky next to exclusive beach resorts. You’ve got two days to explore Montevideo: be sure to visit Mercado del Puerto, the city’s old port market building, as well as soak up the atmosphere around Independencia and Matriz Plaza, before slipping on your dancing shoes and heading to the nearest tango bar.

Days 7 & 8: At sea

Find your sea legs and spend two days taking full advantage of Azamara Pursuit’s facilities.

Days 9 - 10: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

A collection of colourful days await as you dock in Rio, a captivating place with samba-fuelled nightlife, golden beaches, and a real lust for life. Take to the streets and join in with the mega-celebration that is Rio Carnival, an iconic event that’s earned itself the ‘biggest festival in the world’ title. Mega parades, dizzying beats, and plenty of colourful costumes await here, but there’s plenty more to see besides. Make the pilgrimage up to Cristo Redentor and marvel at one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World; cable car up to Sugarloaf Mountain for more spectacular city views; and watch the sunset from Ipanema beach, coconut - or caipirinha - in hand.

Days 11 & 12: At sea

As you begin your return journey to Buenos Aires, make the most of two more days aboard Azamara Pursuit, surrounded as you are by the endless blue of the sea and sky.

Day 13: Punta Del Este, Uruguay

Your final stop on this epic cruise is Punta del Este, a resort city known for its strong surf, beautiful beaches and 19th-century lighthouse. It’s something of a playground for the rich, hosting race events, glamorous parties, and a harbour studded with multi-million pound yachts. La Barra and José Ignacio are home to the fashion boutiques, while artisanal markets pop up around Gorlero Street. The culinary offerings here are sublime (naturally), but it’s the desserts that really steal the show: dulce de leche volcano is an absolute must, and makes for a final explosively sweet treat before you depart.

Day 14: Buenos Aires, Argentina

You’ll dock around 8am, and have a few hours in this magical city once again before your flight back to the UK.
