Brazil to Spain – Rio & Canary Islands
About this cruise
Clear the calendar from April 1, 2027. This one's 14 nights from Santos, and the route visits Rio de Janeiro, Maceio, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and Tarragona. By the time you're a week in, you'll have completely stopped checking your phone. You wind up in Tarragona, so it's worth planning a night or two there. The final stretch is open ocean, which gives you time to process everything you've seen and use the ship one last time. Tango, rainforest, Patagonian ice. South America covers a lot of ground. You get around 10 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, You won't go hungry on MSC Musica. 3 restaurants come with the fare, plus 1 more when you feel like treating yourself. One of the underrated parts of a longer cruise: you actually get to know people. The couple from dinner, the group at trivia, the bartender who remembers your drink. An April departure catches that sweet window of warm-enough weather before the summer rush. Hard to ask for much more than that, honestly.
