Roundtrip Fort Lauderdale

After departing Fort Lauderdale, two days at sea allow you to make the most of all that’s on board, from golf and pickleball to the relaxing spa. Our first port of call is Gustavia in glamorous St Barts, followed by pretty Fort-de-France in Martinique, where Napoleon’s wife, Josephine, was born. Onwards to St Vincent to visit locations used in the Pirates of the Caribbean movies. A trip to see the 18th-century fort in Scarborough, Trinidad and Tobago, is followed by another two relaxing sea days. Our arrival in Santarém, where the waters of the Tapajós River meet the Amazon, marks the start of the Brazilian leg of our voyage. The tiny Indian village of Boca de Valeria offers an insight into a traditional way of life; lively Manaus, where we have two days, is the gateway to adventures in the Amazon rainforest; and Parintins hosts the second-largest festival in Brazil after the Rio Carnival. Then it’s time to relax on the lovely beaches of Alter do Chão before we bid a fond farewell to Brazil and wend our way back to the Caribbean. We call at Devil’s Island, a fascinating former penal colony in French Guiana, and then hop between a sunny trio of enchanting islands: Barbados, Antigua, and Jost Van Dyke. Two final sea days return us to Fort Lauderdale, where our journey ends.
