Highlights of this cruise:

Buenos Aires
Buenos Aires is the capital of Argentina and although it may be the wealthiest city in South America, it is also rich in culture, music and the arts.

As your luxury MSC cruise ship pulls into the newly modernised cruise terminal, the soaring skyscrapers of the world's ninth largest city hint at the elegance and energy that this cosmopolitan city and important cruise destination holds.

Rio de Janeiro
Many first-time visitors to Rio will be keen to view the city's major landmarks, such as the giant statue of Christ (Christo Redentor) which is located on top of Corcovado Mountain or Sugarloaf Mountain, a granite monolith also situated in the city.

Nature lovers will be bowled over by the beauty of Tijuca Forest, which, at 32 square kilometres is the largest urban forest on the planet. Indeed, many beautiful attractions abound in Rio, not least the city's famous beaches, from the Copacabana to the Ipanema, two of the most glorious stretches of white sand and perfect for a spot of sun lounging!

If you're hungry for a real city experience, opt for the grand tour of Rio de Janiero (note to football fans - whatever team you support, a trip to Maracana, the largest football stadium in the world, is a must see).

Salvador
Located on the north-east coast of Brazil, Salvador is the third most populous Brazilian city, after São Paulo.
As the first colonial capital of Brazil, Salvador da Bahia is one of the oldest cities in the country. Much of the population of Salvador has Black African ancestry and the city has retained its Afro-Brazilian roots making it an important centre for culture and the arts.

You can experience a little of this enthralling heritage on the 'Bahia by Night' tour, where visitors can enjoy a show of typical Afro Bahiana music and dance.

Visually, the city is stunning, with 17th- and 18th-century architecture dotted with gold-embellished churches.

Lisbon
Lisbon is the capital of Portugal and the westernmost capital city in Europe.

With its sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean and over 20 centuries of history, there is no shortage of landmarks to visit in this beguiling holiday town. From gothic to post-modern, the city's rich cultural history envelopes you as you stroll the streets under one of the most comfortable year-round climates.

With its elegant squares and the distinctive character of intriguing districts such as Alfama and Baixa, Lisbon's atmosphere is more sunny and cheerful than its melancholy musical heritage of Fado folk songs would have you believe!

Discover the gigantic Christ King (Cristo Rei) statue overlooking Lisbon from the Tagus River, and the Vasco da Gama Bridge, one of the longest structures of its kind in Europe.

Vigo
Vigo is a beautiful town located in the region of Galicia, the 'green heart' of Spain, located on the northeast coast.

Cruise passengers to Vigo will delight in finding an area that is un-crowded, where they can experience an authentic taste of Spain and local life.

Once your MSC cruise liner has docked, you will find easy access to the town itself. Leave the ship and stroll along the waterfront, where the old town, with its narrow cobbled streets will soon reveal its charms to you.

Kiel
Kiel is a city in northern Germany located on the Baltic Sea. The city was the country's main naval base until after the Second World War.

Kiel is famous for sailing events; each year the city hosts Kieler Woche', a series of sailing regattas. Thanks to its strategic location, cruise passengers can visit a whole host of great holiday attractions, which are all within easy reach of Kiel.

Oslo
Oslo is the capital city of Norway. It is situated on a fjord and is surrounded by forests. It has developed into a thriving city with many restaurants, nightclubs, cafes, shopping complexes and tourist attractions.

Oslo offers some 50 museums and many art galleries. Amongst the internationally known attractions are: the Vigeland Sculpture Park, the Viking Ship Museum, the Munch Museum and Holmenkollen.

New attractions in Oslo include the Nobel Peace Centre and the Holocaust Center.

Copenhagen
Modern Copenhagen is an attractive, well-kept city and the largest city in Scandinavia. It has a provincial, small-town atmosphere, gabled houses, narrow streets and a skyline that is dominated by delicate spires. Copenhagen is also the greenest capital in Europe with much of the city center reserved for pedestrians, strict anti-pollution laws, and bikes often outnumbering cars on the streets. There are many green spaces (including the world-famous Tivoli) and in the summer, cafes and restaurants occupy the pavements.

Copenhagen boasts theaters, museums and a lively, surprisingly cutting-edge nightlife scene. The best the country has to offer can be experienced in the capital city, where there are design studios, ultra-hip bars, and modern architecture amongst the 17th-century buildings. A road bridge to Sweden was completed in 2000, making Copenhagen a key focal point for Scandinavia, the Baltic and the rest of mainland Europe.
