7 Night Cruise from Rio de Janeiro
About this cruise
This one leaves Rio de Janeiro on December 29, 2026 and spends 7 nights visiting Ilha Grande, Buzios, Paranagua, Itajai and Ilhabela at a pace where every day has something going on but there's always time to just sit and watch the water too. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. Tango, rainforest, Patagonian ice. South America covers a lot of ground. Most ports give you about 8 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, MSC Musica takes the food seriously, with 4 restaurants to choose from. 3 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Rio de Janeiro has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. The timing adds to it: swapping cold weather for sunshine and sea air is the whole pitch for a winter cruise. 7 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.

We added MSC Cruises's mandatory service charge to the prices above, so they show the real total. MSC Cruises bills it on board rather than in the fare, so their own site will quote you less.
