The Amazon and its breathtaking, diverse landscape is a constant surprise, and a cruise can deliver its wonders up-close. South America's variety doesn't end with Amazonian biodiversity.

Colonial towns that have barely changed since the 18th century hide gilded churches and stately plazas. Its indigenous markets are places to haggle for traditional products. From the call of howler monkeys in the rainforest to the pounding rhythms of samba and the fever of Brazilian nightlife – South America is all about the big adventure. Despite all this diversity, one thing remains constant; the infectious enthusiasm for life and the warmth of the welcome is there for any visitor to these extraordinary lands.
