Buenos Aires to Rio de Janeiro

Buenos Aires, the vibrant capital of Argentina, dances to the rhythm of tango and pulses with cultural energy.

Renowned for its international conferences and film festivals, Punta del Este is one of the finest beach resorts in South America. Many wealthy Uruguayans, Argentines and Brazilians have built spectacular mansions along the magnificent coastline. Celebrities and jet-setters from across the globe frequent Punta del Este for the beaches, fresh air and nightlife. For many of Montevideo's residents this fashionable resort provides a popular weekend getaway. With a skyline of alternating high-rise towers and million-dollar mansions, Punta del Este is host to a sophisticated culture and a swinging social scene. During the day locals and visitors hit the beaches of the peninsula that provide a perfect setting for a variety of watersports. The land side, with its sand dunes, large forests of pines, eucalyptus and mimosa, makes a fitting contrast. A marina full of sleek yachts, excellent restaurants, chic boutiques, art galleries, a renowned museum, casinos and three golf courses add to a Riviera-like atmosphere.

A day at sea aboard Silver Whisper is a chance to embrace both indulgence and discovery, where time unfolds at your own pace against the ever-changing backdrop of the ocean. Mornings might begin with breakfast served in your suite by your butler, featuring freshly brewed coffee, buttery pastries, and tropical fruits, all enjoyed on your veranda as the horizon glows with the first light of day. Others may prefer to start more energetically, perhaps with a yoga class, a workout in the Fitness Centre, or a brisk walk on deck as the sea air fills your lungs. As the morning continues, the ship offers plenty of ways to unwind or explore. The Observation Library invites quiet reflection with its panoramic windows and well-stocked shelves, while the Boutique tempts with carefully chosen collections of jewellery, fashion and fragrances. Guests who enjoy a more social atmosphere might join a friendly game in the Card Room, while enrichment lectures in The Show Lounge provide fascinating insights into the destinations yet to come. When lunchtime arrives, the choice of dining venues ensures there’s something to suit every mood. You may opt for the elegant service of The Restaurant, where regional specialities highlight the flavours of your itinerary, or take a seat at La Terrazza to enjoy authentic Italian dishes prepared with the freshest ingredients. Those who prefer a casual setting can enjoy light fare poolside at The Grill, where the relaxed atmosphere is paired with panoramic sea views. Afternoons are perfect for relaxation. Many guests head to the Pool Deck, where you can recline in the sun with a chilled drink or take a refreshing dip. Others indulge in the tranquillity of the Zagara Beauty Spa, where massages, facials and body treatments are designed to renew both body and mind. The Beauty Salon offers pampering touches, ensuring you feel perfectly prepared for the evening ahead. As twilight descends, the ship takes on a new rhythm. Perhaps you’ll begin the evening with a cocktail in The Bar, where live music sets the tone. Dinner might mean French haute cuisine at La Dame, interactive Hot Rocks dining at The Grill, or authentic Italian flavours at La Terrazza, each offering its own distinct atmosphere and culinary style. The night is yours to enjoy as you wish. You may be drawn to The Show Lounge for a production performance or cultural lecture, or find yourself at the Casino, where roulette wheels spin late into the night. For a quieter closer, Connoisseur’s Corner offers fine cognac and cigars in a refined setting, while the Panorama Lounge provides live music and dancing beneath the stars.

Paranaguá is a city in the state of Paraná in Brazil. Founded in 1648, it is Paraná's oldest city. It is known for the Port of Paranaguá, which serves as both the sea link for Curitiba, 110 kilometres to the west and the capital of Paraná, and as one of the largest ports of Brazil.

Portuguese for beautiful island, Ilhabela carries its name well. Considered a natural paradise by both locals and visitors alike, the island is a kaleidoscope of beautiful beaches, lush tropical rainforests and an incredible 360 waterfalls. Located a four hour drive (and a 15-minute ferry ride) from São Paolo, 85% of the island is a UNESCO-Biosphere Reserve. View less While people may come initially to Ihalbela for its famous beaches, (one of which was named as a top ten worldwide beach by The Guardian), expect much greater things that just sunning and relaxing in the shade from this little island. With almost 25 miles/40 kilometres of pristine beaches, fun in the sun is certainly always an option, but Ilhabela is also a vibrant little city, full of vivacity and history, just waiting to be discovered. Located on the west coast of the island, Ilhabela town still shows signs of its colonial past, examples of which can be see through the local architecture. Perhaps one of the most photogenic chapels you will see on the island is the Nossa Senhora D’Ajuda. Built in 1806, the Catholic church is a pretty little white-washed building set on a hill, positioned as if protecting over the town. Decked with colourful bunting much of the time, the church is filled to the rafters on holy days with locals expressing their faith. The interior of the church has signs of faded grand charm, much like the city itself. Several miles before the entrance to town, on the way to the ferry, is the Princess’ House, an impressive 18th-century mansion belonging to the Fazenda Engenho d’Agua, one of the most important of Ilhabela’s many former sugar plantations.

Nestled off the coast of Rio de Janeiro, Ilha Grande emerges as a pristine paradise of lush rainforests, secluded beaches and crystalline waters.
