As the tourism industry continues to boom guests are looking for more adventure holidays and what could be more exciting than cruising from Cape Town to Buenos Aires and Rio de Janeiro. Guests begin their trip with a 4-night stay in South Africa's golden city. Situated amidst stunning scenery, Cape Town is increasingly becoming one of the world's hottest destinations. It's the perfect place to shop, sip famous South African vintages and dine in the thriving restaurants of the Cape. Then Marco Polo heads to the new celebrity hideaway of Namibia. Visit Walvis Bay, so beautiful that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie chose it as the birthplace for their first child. .
Leave Africa and cross the Atlantic via St. Helena to South America, where Rio de Janeiro plays host for the first three nights of your stay. Spend time sunning yourself on Copacapana Beach or enjoy the carnival atmosphere, all under the watchful eye of the iconic statue of Christ the Redeemer ('Cristo Redentor').
