The small port town of Paracas on Peru's west coast, has a reputation for wonderful beaches, and is a destination point for the uninhabited Ballestas Islands, home to sea lions, pelicans and Humboldt penguins. Much more than a thriving deep water port, Paracas is perfectly placed for tours to many of Peru's most spectacular natural wonders. Close by is the rugged, wildlife-rich Paracas National Reserve that spans desert, ocean, islands and the Paracas Peninsula. This designated UNESCO World Heritage Site is a sanctuary for seals, penguins, flamingos and dozens of seabird species – and home to the glorious Athens Beach. The Islas Ballestas – affectionately known as the Peruvian Galapagos, are volcanic islands that boast spectacular scenery and are home to countless cormorants and Inca terns, as well as breeding sea lions. The Paracas Candelabra, also called the Candelabra of the Andes, is a well-known prehistoric geoglyph found on the northern face of the peninsula, and is a must to witness and capture on camera.

Though founded in 1547 by Spanish conquistador Francisco Orellana, historic Guayaquil's name immortalises Guayas (the last Indian chief) and Quil (his wife), who committed suicide rather than submit to Madrid! On the Guayas River, where it nears the Gulf of Guayaquil, Ecuador's largest city and port boasts several colonial landmarks (especially the 16th century Santo Domingo church) - but renewal projects like the Malecon collection of restaurants, theatres and parks symbolise the indomitable spirit of a city that has defied pirates, fires and earthquakes.

Your Incredible Grand Voyage Highlights

Experience the Rhythms of Rio De Janeiro

Rio de Janeiro is famed for its Copacabana and Ipanema beaches, framed by Sugarloaf Mountain, accessed by cable car, and Mount Corcovado. The iconic statue of Christ the Redeemer looks over the city from a height of 2,310 feet, and is one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. The city is also renowned for its Carnival, and is one of the most famous events in the world, consisting of huge flamboyant parades, dancing and elaborate costumes.

White Wonderland of Antarctica

Stretching up from the heart of the world's southernmost continent, the Antarctic Peninsula lies a mere 620 miles from Tierra del Fuego and, for many, offers a spectacular first taste of the snow-blanketed landscapes and colossal ice sculptures, which make up Earth's least-explored continent. Unseen by humans until 1820 - a blink of an eye ago in relative terms - this is an adventure sure to make your hairs stand on end, as you experience the thrill of the truly unknown and extraordinary. Witness cathedral-sized icebergs up close, and blue-hued glaciers, slowly slipping from imposing locations like Hope Bay. Blanched mountain peaks cover the peninsula, and you'll find thousands of adorable Adelie penguin pairs thriving undisturbed in this peninsula's unique setting.
