Daily Itinerary

1. Day 1

   Paranagua

   Depart 18:00

   Brazil

   

   Paranagua, Brazil is a distinctive port city where deep cultural heritage meets authentic local atmosphere, featured on itineraries by MSC Cruises. Must-do experiences include walking the historic center to experience the layered architectural heritage, and seeking out the regional culinary traditions at a locally favored establishment away from the port area. The optimal time to visit is October through April, when warm weather and extended daylight create ideal conditions.

2. Day 2

   Arrive 08:00Depart 17:00

   Itajaí is the cruise gateway to Florianópolis — Brazil's most livable island city, blessed with forty-two beaches, Azorean cultural heritage, and right whale calving grounds visible from shore. Visit October through March via Oceania Cruises or MSC Cruises for world-class surfing, multi-course shrimp feasts, and the southern Brazilian paradise where the country's own residents dream of relocating.

3. Day 3

   Ilhabela

   Arrive 09:00Depart 18:00

   Brazil

   

   Ilhabela is a mountainous, jungle-covered island off Sao Paulo's coast, combining over forty beaches, UNESCO-protected Atlantic Forest, and Brazil's most celebrated sailing waters. Must-dos include hiking to the Cachoeira do Gato waterfall, beach-hopping to remote Praia de Castelhanos, and dining on fresh-caught seafood at Vila's harbourside restaurants. April through November offers the driest weather and best conditions for hiking and diving.

   Arrive 08:00Depart 18:00

   Belgium

   

   Hasselt is Belgium's jenever capital, home to a National Jenever Museum, Europe's largest Japanese Garden, and a fashion scene that belies its provincial size. Visit April through October via Uniworld River Cruises for cherry blossom season in the Japanese Garden, artisanal spirit tastings in historic distilleries, and the unpretentious Flemish culinary culture that makes this Limburg capital one of Belgium's most rewarding secrets.

5. Day 5

   Buzios

   Arrive 08:00Depart 18:00

   Brazil

   

   Armação dos Búzios, a stunning resort town in Brazil, is celebrated for its beautiful beaches, charming colonial architecture, and vibrant atmosphere, making it a must-visit port of call. Visitors should not miss indulging in local delicacies like moqueca and pastel de camarão while exploring the lively markets. The best time to visit is during the Brazilian summer from December to March, when the weather is perfect for beach activities.

6. Day 6

Visitors hike to the legendary Lopes Mendes beach, snorkel in the crystalline Lagoa Azul, and dine on fresh moqueca at waterfront restaurants in the barefoot village of Abraão. MSC Cruises and Oceania Cruises anchor here on South American itineraries, with March through November offering the best conditions.
