How our discounts work
Read moreHow our discounts work
On all cruises we set aside a number of cabins within each level at a discounted fare, with the highest discount of 35% for ocean cruises and 25% for river cruises available on selected levels. These cabins are sold on a first come, first served basis. As cabins are sold, the discount begins to reduce, and continues to reduce until those selected cabins are sold.
This means that the earlier you book, the higher the chance of securing a greater discount. Our price panels clearly show the full cruise price, along with the current discount fare.
Please note: During busy periods for holiday bookings, the early booking discount can reduce rapidly. We recommend that you book early to benefit from the best booking discounts and to secure your preferred cabin.
When promoting new cruises for the first time, we contact customers on our Advanced Registration list first, allowing then to secure the cabin of their choice and benefit from the best savings. Our brochures are then sent out to loyalty club members first, followed by past cruise goers and then everyone else.
Contrast Rio de Janeiro and Buenos Aires
23 nights departing January 7, 2027 from Portsmouth.
Explore captivating landscapes and a trio of South American cities on this all-inclusive cruise, flying back to the UK from Buenos Aires. During your Transatlantic crossing, stop to enjoy the beautiful coves and sandy beaches of Gran Canaria and the dramatic volcanic vistas on the Cape Verde island of Santiago.
Brazil, a land of natural wonders and indigenous folklore, contrast the vibrant cities of Salvador and samba-fuelled Rio de Janeiro. Salvador, Brazil’s first capital, was founded by the Portuguese in 1549. Its UNESCO-listed old town of Pelourinho is a colourful blend of European, African and Amerindian cultures. While Rio de Janeiro, overlooked by the Art Deco statue of Christ the Redeemer, has a lively atmosphere and world-renowned beaches, Copacabana and Ipanema.
Continue to Argentina and cruise up the Rio de la Plata into the heart of the capital city Buenos Aires. The city has a wealth of Art Deco, Art Nouveau and neoclassical architecture. The main square, Plaza de Mayo, is overlooked by the pink presidential Casa Rosada Palace. The bohemian La Boca district is identified by its numerous brightly-painted shanty houses.
After an overnight visit to the city, transfer to the airport for the overnight flight back to the UK.
