Argentine capital
The trip starts in Argentina’s capital, Buenos Aires so it makes total sense to get here a few days early to hit the city streets. A bit of neighbourhood hopping will showcase the unique vibes perfectly: Recoleta is upscale chic, Palermo gives European-city energy, bold La Boca is an artsy hub, and San Telmo has historic streets and a bohemian buzz.
Rio days
You’ll disembark in Rio de Janeiro, the Brazilian city with an intoxicating blend of iconic sights, dramatic natural beauty and a one-of-a-kind fiesta atmosphere. We’ve tacked on three days at the end of the holiday to take it all in, ascending Sugar Loaf and Corcovado mountains, seeing and being seen on the sands of Ipenema or Copacabana.
Brazilian coast
As you skim the Atlantic Coast on board Oceania Insignia, you’ll get more than your fair share of beach time. The stops range in style from character-rich coastal towns and chic beach resorts to popular surf spots, car-free paradise islands and protected nature reserves. This is a way to see the beauty of beachfront Brazil without any tricky land-based logistics.
Go local
The best way to boost your cruise experience is by adding on some shore excursions. Oceania have a range of trips like Go Green and Go Local tours which focus on local communities and environments. For smaller groups and more flexibility, pick Oceania Exclusive excursions and for something extra special, the Oceania Select trips should do the trick.
