Brazilian Coast Escape – Buzios & Salvador
About this cruise
Sometimes you just need a few days out of your routine. This one sails from Santos on December 5, 2026, spends 4 nights visiting Buzios, Salvador and Maceio, and gets you back before anyone really notices you were gone. The sailing ends in Maceio. You're in port almost every day, so pack shoes you can actually walk in. Big cities one day, Tierra del Fuego the next. The variety is hard to match. People come back from this cruise talking about Maceio: Emerald lagoons and coral-reef pools. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. MSC Virtuosa takes the food seriously, with 7 restaurants to choose from. 1 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. And a December cruise to warmer water? Hard to argue with that when it's cold at home. 3 ports, one suitcase. That's the appeal.

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.

Getting there: out to Santos, home from Maceio
This cruise does not return to Santos. It ends in Maceio, so your flight home leaves from there.
