27 Night Cruise from Santos
About this cruise
A 27-night sailing gives you something shorter trips can't: the feeling that you're not just visiting places but actually living somewhere else for a while. This one leaves Santos on April 4, 2027 and visits Rio de Janeiro, Salvador and Maceio, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. The sailing ends in Copenhagen. With 13 sea days woven in between port calls, there's time to actually use the ship and recharge. The route threads through 9 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: Brazil, Cape Verde, Spain, Morocco, Portugal, France, United Kingdom, Denmark and Germany. People come back from this cruise talking about Rio de Janeiro: Samba, Sugarloaf, and Copacabana's curve. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. At 132,500 gross tons, Costa Diadema is big enough that you can find a quiet corner or a crowd, depending on your mood. The longer time on board means you'll catch several shows, themed nights, and start feeling like a regular at your favourite bar. Santos itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. 14 ports, 9 countries, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
