Question about South American Cruises

[sp29488]

Not sure where to ask this, we've only cruised on Carnival. We have family that wants to cruise to South America. I'm not sure if Carnival does this. Does any one know? If they don't can anyone recommend a cruise line that does? Thanks for the help and please move if this needs to be some where else.

0 Miami 4:00 PM

10 Callao (Lima) 9:00 AM 7:00 PM

 

11 At Sea

 

12 Arica 8:00 AM 1:00 PM

There's a whole world of cruising outside of Carnival's realm.

NCL for sail dates in Dec of 2017 and 2018. Remember that December is the start of summer in SA.

Princess also goes there

[Essiesmom]

Holland America also goes there. Go to http://www.cruisetimetables.com and choose ports they want to visit and see who calls there. There are lots of options. EM

Maybe try looking on website for each cruise line?

[nhsails]

All the major lines to South America. Go to lines website and you'll find tons of information.

Take a look at Princess. A few years ago I did a 32 day itinerary from Fort Lauderdale, thru the Caribbean (with stops in several ports), visited numerous ports as we cruised down the east side of SA, around Cape Horn, up the west side of SA, disembarked in Valpariso, Chile, and flew back to the US from Santiago, Chile. It was a fabulous cruise!!

Suggest they get a good cruise knowledgeable travel agent since some SA ports require a visa.

I would look at a 14-16 day itinerary leaving Valparaiso and ending in Buenos Aires (or the reverse) that includes the Falkland Islands. What ports are you interested in visiting?

I know Brazil requires a visa.
