Southampton, UK

The vibrant port city of Southampton has always had a rich history in seafaring and is still a popular embarkation port for cruises today.

Gran Canaria, Spain

The tranquil harbour, verdant palm groves and excellent climate of Gran Canaria's lively capital Las Palmas delighted Christopher Columbus when he discovered it on his famous voyage of 1492.

St Vincent , Cape Verde

Remote and peaceful, the Cape Verde Islands are about as far off the beaten track as you'll get.

Recife, Brazil

Experience the vibrant port of Recife, Brazil, where stunning beaches, rich colonial history and lively culture welcome all to explore. Discover the charming Old Town, bustling markets and breathtaking coastal scenery.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

Salvador, Brazil

Once Portugal’s colonial capital, Salvador’s beauty adds to the already-vibrant energy that emanates from Brazil.

Buzios, Brazil

A seaside paradise, Búzios boasts 17 beaches, fine restaurants and so much more. Sprinkled with Mediterranean touches that mimic that of Spain, Búzios is much more than the quiet fishing village it used to be – now, it’s a modern paradise that makes you feel as though you’ve stepped into a painting with its picturesque waterfront and charming cobbled streets. One’s thing for certain when you visit this city: you won’t run out of things to do. &nbsp;

Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Famous for its colourful carnival and fabulous beaches, as well as the dramatic entry to its cruise port, Rio de Janeiro in the south-eastern corner of Brazil has much more to offer than sun and sand.

Santos (for Sao Paulo) , Brazil

Sao Paulo is the southern hemisphere’s largest city and it has a big personality to match. Called ‘Sampa’ by locals, this energetic corner of Brazil is a thriving city with an adventure around every corner. From the colourful scenes of Liberdade to the Pinacoteca Museum, this destination is an absolute must-see that you’ll be talking about for a long time.&nbsp;

Montevideo, Uruguay

Unsung jewel of the South Atlantic, Montevideo, on the northern shore of the mighty River Plate, teems with an intoxicating mix of European tradition and colourful South American culture.

Port Stanley, Falkland Islands

With a mere 2,932 permanent residents, there are reputedly 167 sheep for every human in the Falkland Islands, making it the highest number of sheep per capita of anywhere in the world. New Zealand can only look on enviously with a paltry seven sheep per head. Happily, there are more interesting pastimes in Stanley than counting its woolly inhabitants; a haven for marine wildlife and an ornithologist's dream, expect to encounter seals, whales and a huge penguin population. Possessing a roughhewn charm, Stanley offers the pleasantly disorientating feel of an eccentric British village, 8,000 miles from home. The fresh seafood and lamb is, of course, superb.

Cruise around Cape Horn , Chile

Cape Horn is a point on Hornos Island, in the Tierra del Fuego archipelago at the southernmost tip of South America. It was first navigated by Jakob Le Maire and Willem Schouten in 1616 and it was Schouten that named the point after his Dutch town of birth - Hoorn. The body of water that passes the point and rounds the island was notoriously treacherous for the ships of that era which were buffeted by storms and strong currents as they attempted to sail around the huge icebergs that blighted their path. But when gold was discovered in California in 1848 this route suddenly became an immensely important passageway from the Atlantic to the Pacific Coast and so shipbuilders began to craft ships that were sturdier and more able to withstand the rigours of passage. But, once the Panama Canal opened in 1914, most captains chose this quicker, easier route through, which is why rounding Cape Horn today is regarded as one of the most special of seafaring experiences.

Cruise in Beagle Channel , Chile

The channel owes its name to the British ship the Beagle, upon which Charles Darwin explored the area in the early 1800s. It's a 150 mile channel of water that cuts through South America's Tierra del Fuego archipelago of islands, separating the main island in the north from the collection of small islands in the south. Its mysterious grey waters, into which glaciers leisurely tumble, is presided over by a group of majestic mountains and provides a home to sea lions, the Peale's dolphin and Minke whales. Look to the skies and cliff-faces for spectacular birdlife including the Black-browed albatross, the thick-set Giant petrel, Southern skuas, the South American tern and the primitive looking Cormorant. One thing is for sure, you should wrap up warm and head up on deck for some of the most memorable and magical sights you'll experience on your trip.

Cruise in Magellan Straits , Chile

In 1520, Ferdinand Magellan sailed five ships from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean through these waters. Follow in the footsteps of these historic adventurers as you cruise through the Magellan Straits, flanked by the rugged mountains of southern Chile.

Punta Arenas, Chile

Located within the Straits of Magellan, Punta Arenas is proud of being a frontier town. Tour the scenic landscapes of Patagonia with its rich abundance of exotic wildlife and breath-taking views.&nbsp;

Cruise by Amalia Glacier , Chile

Amalia Glacier (also known as Skua Glacier) is located in Bernardo O'Higgins National Park

Cruise by PIO X Glacier , Chile

The PIO X Glacier is the only glacier in the world that is continuing to grow and currently has a surface area of 786 square miles.   These ancient Chilean fjords are an amazing place to view an incredible array of wildlife and Aurora's decks provide the perfect vantage point.

San Antonio (for Santiago) , Chile

Coquimbo, Chile

Legend has it that pirates crossed the Strait of Magellan to Coquimbo's beaches to bury their treasure. But even if you don't find a pot of gold along Chile's northern coastline, you will discover a city with many jewels.   Sparkling along a stretch of idyllic white sand are the shallow waters of La Herradura Bay, a favourite beauty spot against the rocky backdrop of Coquimbo's hills.   For a lively mix of music, culture and food, it's worth a wander to the beautifully restored 19th-century Barrio Inglés (English Quarter), or to the fishing jetty for some fresh seafood.   Those with a head for heights can climb El Vigía hill to The Third Millennium Cross, a staggering monument which dominates the skyline. A surreal mix between a holy pilgrimage site and viewpoint, there's a museum (largely devoted to the late Pope John Paul II), praying rooms and an elevator ride to the top.

Arica, Chile

Never mind Chile, it's positively chilled out in Arica, where the sun shines all year round. With its miles of golden sand dunes at the foot of El Morro hill, there's a laid back surfer dude vibe in the City of Eternal Spring.

Callao (tours to Lima) , Peru

Callao is your landing point for the capital of Peru, Lima - originally known as the 'City of the Kings'. Stroll along the streets and alleyways of its historic centre following its archaeological trail and admire beautiful Baroque churches, ornate balconies and classic colonial style buildings. Sights you can see from Lima cruises are the bronze fountain in the Plaza de Armas, the Presidential Palace and the mosaics at Pizarro's Cathedral. Cruises to Lima bring to your holiday a combination of both elegant and historical grounds. The city's distinct neighbourhoods each offers something a little different to suit every Lima cruise passenger- from the bustling market area, to the bars and bohemia of wealthy Barranca.

Manta, Ecuador

Manta is a thriving port town, renowned (rather unglamorously) for deep sea fishing and canning tuna. But there is much in Ecuador's fifth largest city to enjoy, starting with its endless stretches of golden, sandy beaches. Away from the shopping malls and high rises of the bustling city, there are some large touristy beaches, but if it's solitude you're after, you don't have to travel far to find sleepy towns with a more laidback approach. Stretch out on virtually deserted surfer style sands, fronted only by a small surf shack selling trinkets and ice cool drinks. If beaches give you itchy feet, head to the Banco Central Museum to view an interesting collection of Ecuadorian and pre-Colombian artwork. Or take a taxi to Montecristi, home of the Panama hat, designed by Francisco Delgado in the 1700s. Here you'll learn more of its fascinating history and watch some intricate weaving demonstrations.

Fuerte Amador, Panama

The fast-growing city of Fuerte Amador lies at the Pacific end of the Panama Canal on a peninsular jutting out from Balboa. It has a marina and a yacht club, and lies close to Panama City, which is on the other side of Ancon Hill. But, if relaxation and shopping is not your thing, you can easily head into Panama City to explore its atmospheric old quarter, Casco Viejo - a warren of streets lined with fine French and Spanish colonial houses and site of a neo Classical palace. Alternatively, watch the Panama Canal in action at the Miraflores Locks where you will find a viewing deck, a visitor centre and a museum with interactive exhibits of the Canal's history.

Panama Canal (full transit)

Sailing through the Panama Canal is a remarkable experience and a moving one when you know the mixture of tragedy and triumph, French farce and financial meltdown which went into its building.

Cartagena, Colombia

Cartagena boasts charming, narrow streets host quaint colonial buildings, while the magnificent cathedral and palace dominate the city. 

Oranjestad, Aruba

Soft beaches, world class shopping, glitzy casinos, stunning sea views, desert scenes scattered with boulders and exotic cacti are yours to enjoy when you visit Aruba, jewel of the 'deep' Caribbean. 

Grenada, Grenada

 Horseshoe-shaped and set in a volcanic crater, Grenadas capital and cruise port St Georges is flanked by two forts, with colourful French colonial style buildings ranged along the front.

Bridgetown, Barbados

You may feel that you could be on the Cornish coast but the moment you hear the waves of gospel singing emanating from a tiny local church you'll realise you could not be anywhere else but Barbados.

Castries, Saint Lucia

St Lucia has a fascinating if bloody history with the French and British spending years fighting over it. One look at this luscious island will show you why.

Antigua, Antigua and Barbuda

With over 365 beaches, there is a slice of white sand heaven for every day of the year - even a leap year - on the idyllic Caribbean holiday island Antigua.

St Maarten, Saint Maarten

The Caribbean has always been a magnet for people seeking sunshine and smiles.

Ponta Delgada, Portugal

A strong Portuguese influence pervades Ponta Delgada from the stylish colonial architecture to the food and wine served in its restaurants.
