About this cruise

Long enough to properly switch off but not so long you need to reorganise your entire life. This 9-night round-trip sailing from Buenos Aires on December 27, 2026 visits Montevideo, Balneario Camboriu, Ilha Grande, Rio de Janeiro and Ilhabela. Ports up front, sea days at the end. By the time you're back in Buenos Aires, you'll feel properly rested rather than rushed. Big cities one day, Tierra del Fuego the next. The variety is hard to match. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Balneario Camboriu, Brazil's Copacabana of the south. Roughly 8 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Costa Serena carries up to 3,014 guests over 13 decks. Multiple pools, a theatre, and more restaurants than you'll get through. Buenos Aires itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. And a December cruise to warmer water? Hard to argue with that when it's cold at home. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.

Where to book

View on official site

Each Costa Cruises site only sells to people living in the region it serves. Agencies sell across markets, so this fare is often still bookable through one. See who sells it

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